SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Quarterly Report”) contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements may include the words “may,” “should,” “could,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan,” “project,” “continue,” “believe,” “predict,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “goal,” “forecast,” “target” or other similar words.

All statements, other than statements of historical fact, that are included in this Quarterly Report, including such statements that address activities, events or developments that we expect or anticipate will or may occur in the future are forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, statements regarding the voluntary cases (the “Chapter 11 Cases”) filed by the Company and certain of its subsidiaries under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code, the provision of debtor-in-possession financing facilities, the effects of the Chapter 11 Cases on our liquidity or results of operations or business prospects, the expected terms of aone ~~proposed~~or ~~plan~~more sales of ~~reorganization~~substantially all of our assets followed by a joint liquidating Chapter 11 plan, our ability to confirm and consummate a ~~chapter~~joint 11liquidating ~~plan~~Chapter of11 ~~reorganization~~plan, our ability to continue operating in the ordinary course while the Chapter 11 Cases are pending, the treatment of our creditors and other stakeholders (including holders of our common stock) under a ~~plan~~joint ofliquidating ~~reorganization~~Chapter 11 plan, the potential impact of epidemics and pandemics, including the COVID-19 coronavirus (“COVID-19”), any projections of earnings, revenue or other financial items; any statements of the plans, strategies and objectives of management for future operations; any statements concerning future production, reserves or other resource development opportunities; any projected well performance or economics, or potential joint ventures or strategic partnerships; any statements regarding future economic conditions or performance; any statements regarding future capital-raising activities; any statements of belief; commodity price risk management activities and the impact on our average realized price; and any statements of assumptions underlying any of the foregoing.

Although we believe that the expectations, plans, and intentions reflected in or suggested by our forward-looking statements are reasonable, we can give no assurance that these plans, intentions, or expectations will be achieved, and our actual results could differ materially from those projected or assumed in any of our forward-looking statements.

Our future financial condition and results of operations, as well as any forward-looking statements, are subject to inherent risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control. Some of the factors, which could affect our future results and could cause results to differ materially from those expressed in our forward-looking statements include but are not limited to, risks and uncertainties regarding the Company’s ability to complete a liquidation or reorganization process under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code, including consummation of ~~the~~one ~~restructuring~~or inmore ~~accordance~~sales ~~with~~of ~~the~~substantially ~~terms~~all of ~~any~~our ~~restructuring~~assets ~~support~~followed ~~agreement~~by a joint liquidating Chapter 11 plan; potential adverse effects of the Chapter 11 Cases on the Company’s liquidity and results of operations; the Company’s ability to obtain timely approval by the bankruptcy court regarding the motions filed in the Chapter 11 Cases; objections to the Company’s liquidation or restructuring process, the debtor-in-possession financing facilities, or other pleadings filed that could protract the Chapter 11 Cases; employee attrition and the Company’s ability to retain senior management and other key personnel due to the distractions and uncertainties, including the Company’s ability to provide adequate compensation and benefits during the Chapter 11 Cases; the Company’s ability to comply with the restrictions imposed by the debtor-in-possession facilities and other financing arrangements; the Company’s ability to maintain relationships with suppliers, customers, employees and other third parties and regulatory authorities because of the Chapter 11 filing; the effects of the Chapter 11 Cases on the Company and on the interests of various constituents, including holders of the Company’s common stock; the effects of the Chapter 11 Cases on the market price of the Company’s common stock and on the Company’s ability to access the capital markets; the bankruptcy court’s rulings in the Chapter 11 Cases, including the ~~approvals~~approval of the terms of ~~the~~one ~~restructuring~~or ~~and~~more ~~the~~sales ~~debtor-in-possession~~of ~~financing~~substantially ~~facilities~~all of our assets followed by a joint liquidating Chapter 11 plan, and the outcome of the Chapter 11 Cases generally; the time that the Company will operate under Chapter 11 protection and the continued availability of operating capital during the pendency of the Chapter 11 Cases; risks associated with third party motions in the Chapter 11 Cases, which may interfere with the Company’s ability to consummate ~~the~~one ~~restructuring~~or more sales of substantially all of its assets or an alternative restructuring; increased administrative and legal costs related to the Chapter 11 process; potential delays in the Chapter 11 process due to the effects of the COVID-19 coronavirus; and other litigation and inherent risks involved in a bankruptcy process; the impacts of COVID-19 on our business, financial condition and results of operations; the significant fall in the price of oil since the beginning of 2020; other conditions and events that raise doubts about our ability to continue as a going concern, and the other Risk Factors set forth in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, and updated in this Quarterly Report, in Part I, “Item 1A.

Unless otherwise specified or the context otherwise requires, all references in these notes to “we”, “our”, “Lilis” or the “Company” are to Lilis Energy, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries.

NOTE 2 - CHAPTER 11 FILING, LIQUIDITY AND GOING CONCERN

Voluntary Petitions under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code

On June 28, 2020 (the “Petition Date”), Lilis Energy, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries Brushy Resources, Inc., ImPetro Operating LLC, ImPetro Resources, LLC, Lilis Operating Company, LLC and Hurricane Resources LLC (collectively, the “Debtors”) filed voluntary petitions seeking relief under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division (the “Bankruptcy Court”) commencing cases for relief under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code (the “Chapter 11 Cases”). The Chapter 11 Cases are being jointly administered under the caption In re Lilis Energy, Inc., et al., Case No. 20-33274. We are currently operating our business as “debtors-in-possession” under the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court, in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code.

To maintain and continue uninterrupted ordinary course operations during the bankruptcy proceedings, the Debtors filed a variety of “first day” motions seeking approval from the Bankruptcy Court for various forms of customary relief designed to minimize the effect of bankruptcy on the Debtors’ operations, customers and employees. On June 29, 2020, the Bankruptcy Court entered orders approving all requested “first day” relief. As a result, we are able to conduct normal business activities and pay all associated obligations for the period following our bankruptcy filing and (subject to caps applicable to payments of certain pre-petition obligations) certain pre-petition obligations, including, but not limited to: employee wages and benefits, pre-petition amounts owed to certain lienholders and critical vendors and funds belonging to third parties, including royalty interest and working interest holders and partners. During the pendency of the Chapter 11 Cases, all transactions outside the ordinary course of our business require the prior approval of the Bankruptcy Court.

On June 28, 2020, the Debtors entered into a restructuring support agreement (the “RSA”) with (i) the lenders under our Revolving Credit Facility (other than Värde) (each as defined below) (the "“Consenting RBL Lenders"”) and (ii) certain investment funds and entities affiliated with Värde Partners, Inc. (collectively, “Värde”) which collectively own all of our outstanding preferred stock and a subordinated participation in that certain Second Amended and Restated Senior Secured Revolving Credit Agreement dated as of October 10, 2018 (as amended, the “Revolving Credit Agreement” and the loan facility, the “Revolving Credit Facility”), by and among Lilis Energy, Inc., as borrower, the other Debtors, as guarantors, BMO Harris Bank, N.A., as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”), and the lenders party thereto (“RBL Lenders”), ~~for~~which ~~the~~contemplated ~~purpose of supporting~~ (a) ~~the~~a ~~implementation~~dual-track ofpath ~~restructuring~~in ~~transactions,~~the ~~including a~~ Chapter 11 ~~plan~~Cases ofwhereby ~~reorganization~~the ~~with~~Debtors ~~terms~~would ~~consistent~~simultaneously ~~with~~pursue ~~those~~a ~~set~~plan ~~forth~~of inreorganization ~~the RSA (the “Plan”)~~funded, ~~(b) an initial debtor-~~in~~-possession~~ ~~credit agreement (the "Initial DIP Credit Agreement") and related initial DIP credit facility (the “Initial DIP Facility”)~~part, ~~(c)~~by ~~the terms of~~ a ~~replacement~~$55 ~~debtor-in-possession~~million ~~credit~~new ~~agreement~~money ~~(the~~equity ~~“Replacement~~commitment ~~DIP Facility”) and replacement DIP credit facility~~ (the “~~Replacement~~Värde ~~DIP~~Equity ~~Credit Agreement~~Investment”) ~~and~~from ~~(d) the form of an equity commitment letter contemplating an equity investment by one or more~~ Värde ~~entities~~ in ~~the event that Värde elects in~~ its sole discretion towhile ~~provide~~also ~~such~~preparing for a ~~commitment~~potential toprocess ~~fund the Plan on or before August 18, 2020.

The Plan contemplated in the RSA is contingent upon, among other things, Värde’s election in its sole discretion, on or before August 18, 2020, to provide (i) an agreed commitment (which, if elected, will be funded on the effective date of the Plan) to buy the common stock of the reorganized Lilis for $55.0 million in cash less any funding provided by Värde under the Replacement DIP Facility ~~(but excluding any amount of interest or fees paid-in-kind and capitalized thereunder), and (ii) certain Värde funds to provide for a Replacement DIP Facility~~.

Initial DIP Facility, Replacement DIP Facility and Exit Facility.

The RSA contemplates that, upon the interim approval of the Bankruptcy Court, the Debtors, as borrower and guarantors, the Consenting RBL Lenders (in that capacity, “Initial DIP Lenders”) and the Administrative Agent would enter into a Senior Secured Super-Priority Debtor-in-Possession Credit Agreement (the “Initial DIP Credit Agreement”), under which the Initial DIP Lenders would provide a super-priority senior secured debtor-in-possession credit facility providing for an aggregate principal amount of (i) $15.0 million of new money revolving commitments, of which up to $5.0 million would be available upon entry of an interim order, with the remainder available upon entry of a final order, plus (ii) a tranche of roll-up term loans to refinance $15.0 million of the outstanding loans under the Revolving Credit Facility, including $1.5 million pre-petition bridge loans that the Non-Affiliate RBL Lenders advanced to the Company on June 17, 2020, of which $1.5 million of roll-up term loans would be incurred upon entry of an interim order, with the remaining $13.5 million to be incurred upon entry of a final order. On June 29, 2020, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order (the “Interim DIP Order”) granting interim approval of the Initial DIP Facility, thereby permitting the Company to incur up to $5.0 million new money loans on an interim basis. The Initial DIP Credit Agreement was entered into on June 30, 2020. A final hearing on the Initial DIP Facility and Initial DIP Credit Agreement is scheduled for August 18, 2020.

Subject to approval by the Bankruptcy Court, the proceeds of the Initial DIP Facility will be used to pay fees, expenses and other expenditures of the Debtors to be set forth in rolling budgets prepared as part of the Chapter 11 Cases, subject to approval by the Initial DIP Lenders. Closing the Initial DIP Facility is contingent on the satisfaction of customary conditions, including receipt of a final order by the Bankruptcy Court approving the Initial DIP Facility and the Initial DIP Credit Agreement.

of the outstanding common stock of the reorganized Lilis on account of its claims under the Revolving Credit Facility and the Replacement DIP Facility. In addition, Värde may elect, in its sole discretion and on or prior to August 18, 2020, to purchase, upon the Debtors’ emergence from the Chapter 11 Cases, 100% of the common stock of the reorganized Lilis in exchange for $55.0 million in cash (less any funding provided by Värde pursuant to the Replacement DIP Facility (but excluding any amount of interest or fees paid-in-kind and capitalized thereunder)) (the “Värde Equity Investment”). The proceeds of the Värde Equity Investment will be used to repay a portion of the claims of the Non-Affiliate RBL Lenders under the Revolving Credit Facility on the effective date, to fund other distributions under the Plan, and to fund the working capital of the reorganized Debtors.

Pursuant to the RSA, on the effective date of the Plan, the Consenting RBL Lenders will provide a revolving credit facility to the reorganized Debtors in a principal amount of $55.0 million, with a 36-month term to maturity and a 9-month borrowing base redetermination holiday (the “Exit Facility”). The proceeds of the Exit Facility will be used to repay a portion of the Non-Affiliate RBL Lenders’ claims under the Revolving Credit Facility.

Acceleration of Our Existing Debt and Automatic Stay Due to Chapter 11 Filing

As of ~~June~~ September 30, 2020, we had $8874.49 million of indebtedness outstanding under our Revolving Credit Agreement including $25.7 million of such principal held by an affiliate of Värde which was subordinated to the indebtedness of the other RBL Lenders under the Revolving Credit Agreement.

On June 5, 2020, the Debtors, the Administrative Agent, and certain lenders entered into a Limited Forbearance Agreement to the Revolving Credit Agreement (the “Forbearance Agreement”).

Pursuant to the Forbearance Agreement, the Administrative Agent and the Majority Lenders agreed to refrain from exercising certain of their rights and remedies under the Revolving Credit Agreement and related documents arising solely as a result of the occurrence or continuance of certain specified defaults and events of default under the Revolving Credit Agreement (the “Specified Defaults”) during the Forbearance Period (as defined below). The Specified Defaults include the Company’s failure to make the borrowing base deficiency payment due June 5, 2020, deliver certain financial statements when due, failure to comply with requirements related to the status of trade payables and related liens and failure to maintain the leverage ratio and asset coverage ratio required by the Revolving Credit Agreement as of the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2020. The “Forbearance Period” expired on June 26, 2020. The Company did not make the borrowing base deficiency payment.

The Forbearance Agreement also deferred the scheduled spring redetermination of the borrowing base under the Revolving Credit Agreement from on or about June 5, 2020 to on or about June 26, 2020. The redetermination did not happen as a result of the Chapter 11 filing.

The Forbearance Agreement permitted the lenders under the Revolving Credit Agreement, or the RBL Lenders, in their capacity as counterparties to the Company’s commodity swap agreements to unwind and liquidate such swap arrangements during the Forbearance Period and to apply any net proceeds to pay down the outstanding obligations under the Revolving Credit Agreement. The swap positions of such lenders were liquidated on June 9, 2020, for net proceeds of approximately $9.3 million, which was applied to reduce the outstanding obligations of the Company under the Revolving Credit Agreement. On June 17, 2020, certain of the RBL Lenders permitted the Company to borrow $1.5 million under the Revolving Credit Agreement. As of the filing of the Chapter 11 Cases, the remaining outstanding principal on our Revolving Credit Agreement was $89.9 million, including $25.7 million of such principal held by an affiliate of Värde which was subordinated to the indebtedness of the other RBL Lenders under the Revolving Credit Agreement.

Our remaining derivative contracts were with counterparties that were not our RBL Lenders ~~are~~and were governed by master agreements which generally specify that a default under any of our indebtedness as well as any bankruptcy filing is an event of default which may result in early termination of the derivative contracts. As a result of our debt defaults and our bankruptcy petition, we ~~are~~were ~~currently~~ in default under these remaining derivative contracts. In July 2020, the remaining derivative contracts were terminated in conjunction with our bankruptcy proceedings. Furthermore, since we are in default on our indebtedness and have a bankruptcy filing, we will no longer be able to represent that we comply with the credit default or bankruptcy covenants under our derivative master agreements and thus may not be able to enter into new hedging transactions.

Subject to certain exceptions, under the Bankruptcy Code, the filing of the bankruptcy petitions on the Petition Date automatically enjoined, or stayed, the continuation of most judicial or administrative proceedings or the filing of other actions against the Debtors or their property to recover, collect or secure a claim arising prior to the Petition Date. Creditors are stayed from taking any actions against the Debtors as a result of debt defaults, subject to certain limited exceptions permitted by the Bankruptcy Code

Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

Fluctuations in oil and natural gas prices have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations, cash flows and quantities of oil, natural gas and NGL reserves that may be economically produced. Historically, oil and natural gas prices have been volatile, and may be subject to wide fluctuations in the future. If continued depressed prices persist, the Company will continue to experience impairment of oil and natural gas properties, operating losses, negative cash flows from operating activities, and negative working capital.

We face uncertainty regarding the adequacy of our liquidity and capital resources and have extremely limited access to additional financing. The Interim DIP Order entered by the Bankruptcy Court on June 29, 2020 approved the ~~Initial~~ DIP Facility on an interim basis, thereby allowing us to borrow up to $5.0 million under the ~~Initial~~ DIP Facility which we borrowed June 30, 2020. ~~Our~~The ~~ability~~final toorder ~~borrow~~by the ~~additional~~Bankruptcy ~~$10.0~~Court ~~million~~approving ~~new~~the ~~money~~DIP ~~loans~~Facility ~~under~~and the ~~Initial~~ DIP ~~Facility~~Credit isAgreement ~~contingent~~allowed onus ~~the~~to ~~satisfaction~~borrow of the ~~conditions~~additional ~~specified~~$10.0 inmillion ~~the~~new ~~Initial~~money ~~DIP~~loans ~~Credit~~under ~~Agreement,~~the ~~including~~DIP ~~receipt~~Facility.

In addition to the cash requirement necessary to fund ongoing operations, we have incurred significant professional fees and other costs in connection with preparation for the Chapter 11 Cases and expect that we will continue to incur significant professional fees, costs and other expenses throughout our Chapter 11 Cases.

~~As part of the Chapter 11 Cases, the Company entered into the RSA described above.~~ The Company’s operations and its ability to develop and execute its business plan are subject to a high degree of risk and uncertainty associated with the Chapter 11 Cases. The outcome of the Chapter 11 Cases is subject to a high degree of uncertainty and is dependent upon factors that are outside of the Company’s control, including actions of the Bankruptcy Court and the Company’s ~~creditors. There can be no assurance that the Company will confirm and consummate a Plan as contemplated by the RSA or complete another plan of reorganization with respect to the Chapter 11 Cases.~~

creditors. There can be no assurance that the Debtors will confirm the Plan with the Bankruptcy Court and consummate a sale of substantially all of their assets pursuant to the Sales Process or complete an alternative Chapter 11 plan.

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and other commitments in the normal course of business for the twelve-month period following the date of issuance of these consolidated financial statements. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of assets and their carrying amount, or the amount and classification of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

COVID-19

On January 30, 2020, the World Health Organization (“WHO”) announced a global health emergency due to the COVID-19 outbreak, which originated in Wuhan, China, and the risks to the international community as the virus spreads globally beyond its point of origin. In March 2020, the WHO classified the COVID-19 outbreak as a pandemic, based on the rapid increase in exposure globally.

In addition, in March 2020, members of OPEC failed to agree on production levels which has caused increased supply and led to a substantial decrease in oil prices and an increasingly volatile market. The oil price war ended with a deal to cut global petroleum output but did not go far enough to offset the impact of COVID-19 on demand. If depressed pricing continues ~~for an extended period~~ it will lead to i) reductions in availability under any reserve-based lending arrangements we may enter into or limitations in the ability to enter into reserve-based lending arrangements, ii) additional reductions in reserves, and iii) additional impairment of proved and unproved oil and gas properties. We also expect disclosures of supplemental oil and gas information to be impacted by price declines.

The substantial decrease, and continued suppression, in oil prices has resulted in a full-cost ceiling impairment of $3262.72 million and $94.9 million, respectively, during the ~~quarter~~three ~~ended~~and ~~June~~nine months ended September 30, 2020.

11In response to recent commodity prices and our efforts to strengthen our capital through reducing operating costs, during April 2020 the Company elected to shut-in 12 wells which were identified as uneconomic as a result of the continued decline in commodity prices in 2020 and 19 additional wells were identified for short term shut-in through May and June 2020. In late May, 2020, 16 of the shut-in wells were back on production. Another 12 shut-in wells were back on production in early June 2020. In June 2020, the Company also laid off a significant number of employees to further reduce general and administrative costs.

In June 2020, the Company also laid off a significant number of employees to further reduce general and administrative costs.

The full impact of the COVID-19 outbreak and the oversupply of oil and resulting decrease in oil prices continues to evolve as of the date of these financial statements. As such, it is uncertain as to the full magnitude that they will have on the Company’s financial condition, liquidity, and future results of operations.

Management is actively monitoring the global situation on its financial condition, liquidity, operations, suppliers, industry, and workforce. Given the daily evolution of the COVID-19 outbreak and the global responses to curb its spread, the Company is not able to estimate the effects of the COVID-19 outbreak on its results of operations, financial condition, or liquidity for fiscal year 2020.

These matters could have a continued material adverse impact on economic and market conditions and trigger a period of global economic slowdown, which the Company expects would further impair the Company’s asset values, including reserve estimates. Further, consumer demand has decreased since the spread of the outbreak and new travel restrictions placed by governments in an effort to curtail the spread of the coronavirus. Although the Company cannot estimate the length or gravity of the impacts of these events at this time, if the pandemic and/or decreased oil prices continue, they will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of future operations, financial position, and liquidity in fiscal year 2020.

NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

Bankruptcy Accounting

As discussed in Note 2, on June 28, 2020, the Debtors filed voluntary petitions seeking relief under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division commencing cases for relief under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code. During the Chapter 11 proceedings, the Debtors operate their businesses as “debtors-in-possession” under the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court and in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared as if the Company is a going concern and reflect the application of Accounting Standards Codification 852 “Reorganizations” (“ASC 852”). ASC 852 requires that the financial statements, for periods subsequent to the Chapter 11 filing, distinguish transactions and events that are directly associated with the reorganization from the ongoing operations of the business. Accordingly, certain expenses, gains and losses that are realized or incurred in the bankruptcy proceedings are recorded in “reorganization items, net” on our statements of operations. In addition, prepetition unsecured and under-secured obligations that may be impacted by the bankruptcy process have been classified as “liabilities subject to compromise” on our balance sheet at ~~June~~ September 30, 2020. These liabilities are reported at the amounts expected to be allowed as claims by the Bankruptcy Court, although they may be settled for less. The accompanying financial statements do not purport to reflect or provide for the consequences of the Chapter 11 proceedings. In particular, the financial statements do not purport to show: (i) the realizable value of assets on a liquidation basis or their availability to satisfy liabilities; (ii) the amount of prepetition liabilities that may be allowed for claims or contingencies, or the status and priority thereof; (iii) the effect on stockholders’ deficit accounts of any changes that may be made to our capitalization; or (iv) the effect on operations of any changes that may be made to our business. While operating as debtor-in-possession under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code, we may sell or otherwise dispose of or liquidate assets or settle liabilities in amounts other than those reflected on its consolidated financial statements, subject to the approval of the Bankruptcy Court or otherwise as permitted in the ordinary course of business. Further, a ~~plan~~Chapter of11 ~~reorganization~~plan could materially change the amounts and classifications on our historical financial statements.

Principles of Consolidation and Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Brushy Resources, Inc., ImPetro Operating, LLC, ImPetro Resources, LLC, Lilis Operating Company, LLC, and Hurricane Resources LLC. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with GAAP which requires the Company to make a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reported amounts of assets and liabilities; disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements; the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period; and the quantities and values of proved oil, natural gas and natural gas liquid (“NGL”) reserves used in calculating depletion and assessing impairment of its oil and natural gas properties. The most significant estimates pertain to the evaluation of unproved properties for impairment, proved oil and natural gas reserves and related cash flow estimates used in the depletion and impairment of oil and natural gas properties; the timing and amount of transfers of our unevaluated properties into our amortizable full cost pool; the fair value of embedded derivatives and commodity derivative contracts, accrued oil and natural gas revenues and expenses, valuation of options and warrants, and common stock; and the allocation of general and administrative expenses. Actual results could differ significantly from these estimates.

Actual results could differ significantly from these estimates.

Reclassification

Certain amounts on the condensed consolidated statements of changes in stockholders' equity (deficit) have been conformed to the ~~June~~ September 30, 2020 presentation.

Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act

On March 27, 2020, President Trump signed into law the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (the “CARES Act”). The CARES Act, among other things, includes provisions relating to refundable payroll tax credits, deferment of employer side social security payments, net operating loss carryback periods, alternative minimum tax credit refunds, modifications to the net interest deduction limitations, increased limitations on qualified charitable contributions, and technical corrections to tax depreciation methods for qualified improvement property.

It also appropriated funds for the SBA Paycheck Protection Program loans that are forgivable in certain situations to promote continued employment, as well as Economic Injury Disaster Loans to provide liquidity to small businesses harmed by COVID-19. The Company was not eligible for these loans.

The CARES Act has not had a significant impact on our financial condition, results of operations, or liquidity.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement, which modifies the fair value disclosure requirements based on application of the disclosure framework. The provisions removed or amended certain disclosures and in some cases, the ASU requires additional disclosures. The standard is effective for the Company for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company has adopted ASU 2018-13 and did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements or disclosures.

Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging— Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity. This ASU amends the guidance on convertible instruments and the derivatives scope exception for contracts in an entity’s own equity and improves and amends the related EPS guidance for both Subtopics. The ASU will be effective for annual reporting periods after December 15, 2023 and interim periods within those annual periods and early adoption is permitted in annual reporting periods ending after December 15, 2020. The Company is evaluating the impact of ASU 2020-06 on our consolidated financial statements.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, which provides temporary accounting relief for contract modifications to ease the financial reporting burdens related to the expected market transition from LIBOR and other interbank offered rates to a new alternative reference rate. Interest on borrowings under the Company's revolving credit facility is calculated based upon LIBOR. ASU 2020-04 can be applied as of the beginning of the interim period that includes March 12, 2020 or any date thereafter. ASU 2020-04 will generally no longer be available to apply after December 31, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this guidance may have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which replaces the currently required incurred loss methodology with an expected loss methodology. This new methodology requires that a financial asset measured at amortized cost be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The update is intended to provide financial statement users with more useful information about expected credit losses on financial instruments. The amended standard is effective for the Company on January 1, 2023, with early adoption permitted, and shall be applied using a modified retrospective approach resulting in a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings upon adoption. The Company is evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2016-13 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

Accrued Liabilities and Other

At ~~June~~ September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company’s accrued liabilities consisted of the following:

(1) Prepetition accrued liabilities are classified as liabilities subject to compromise on our condensed consolidated balance sheets (see below).

Liabilities Subject to Compromise

Liabilities subject to compromise at ~~June~~ September 30, 2020 represented the Debtors’ prepetition liabilities that have been allowed or that the Debtors anticipate will be allowed as claims in its Chapter 11 cases. The amounts represent the estimated obligations to be resolved in connection with the Chapter 11 proceedings. The differences between the estimate and the claims filed will be evaluated and resolved in connection with the claims resolution process during the Chapter 11 proceedings.

The components of liabilities subject to compromise are as follows as of ~~June~~ September 30, 2020 (in thousands):

Restructuring Charges

ASC 852 requires that the financial statements, for periods subsequent to the Chapter 11 filing, distinguish transactions and events that are directly associated with the reorganization from the ongoing operations of the business. Accordingly, certain expenses, gains and losses that are realized or incurred in the bankruptcy proceedings are recorded in “reorganization items, net” on our statements of operations. The components of restructuring charges are as follows for the ~~three~~nine ~~and six~~ months ended ~~June~~ September 30, 2020 (in thousands):

During the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, $6.0 million and $11.4 million, respectively, of unproved property costs were transferred to proved properties due to the uncertainty that the Company will have access to necessary funding to either extend the leases expiring through the first half of 2021 or begin drilling before their expiration dates. The reclassification for the 2019 period was the result of defective titles and lease expirations. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, leases holding 1,285 net acres in Reeves County and 1,095 net acres in Winkler County expired which were previously impaired.14

~~Depreciation,~~During ~~depletion~~the ~~and~~nine ~~amortization~~months ~~expense~~ended ~~related~~September 30, to2020 ~~proved~~and ~~properties~~2019, ~~was approximately~~ $227.49 million and $915.23 million, respectively, of unproved property costs were transferred to proved properties due to the uncertainty that the Company will have access to necessary funding to either extend the leases expiring through the first half of 2021 or begin drilling before their expiration dates.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, full-cost ceiling impairments totaling $16.6 million were recorded. The impairment charges recognized in the periods reported were the result of a decrease in crude oil and natural gas prices used in preparation of the proved reserves estimate, as well as changes to capital budget in the three months ended September 30, 2020.

NOTE 5 - ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES

Divestitures During 2020

On February 28, 2020, the Company closed on the sale of approximately 1,185 undeveloped net acres in Lea County, New Mexico, for net cash proceeds of approximately $24.1 million, subject to customary purchase price adjustments (the “Marlin Disposition”), of which, $17.3 million was used to satisfy a substantial portion of the then-existing borrowing base deficiency.

Divestitures During 2019

On July 31, 2019, the Company entered into two agreements with Winkler Lea Royalty, L.P. (“WLR”) and Winkler Lea WI, L.P. (“WLWI”) for the sale of an overriding royalty interest and a non-operated working interest in undeveloped assets, respectively (collectively, the “Winkler Lea Assets”), for combined cash proceeds of $39.0 million, including WLWI's drilling advance (the “Asset Sales”). WLR and WLWI are affiliates of Värde Partners, Inc., a related party (see Note 13 - Related Party Transactions).

The Company entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement with WLR (the “ORRI Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company sold to WLR an overriding royalty interest (the “ORRI”) in approximately 1,446 net royalty acres in Winkler and Loving Counties, Texas, and Lea County, New Mexico. The ORRI is equal to the positive difference, if any, between 25% and existing royalties and other burdens, subject to proportionate reduction and the other terms and conditions set forth in the instrument of conveyance. The ORRI Agreement provides the Company with a right to repurchase all, but not less than all, of the ORRI for a period of three years and an obligation, at WLR's election only upon a change of control, to repurchase all, but not less than all, of the ORRI, and also includes certain limitations on WLR's right to transfer the ORRI during such three year period without the consent of the Company. The repurchase price for the first two years of the repurchase period is 1.5 times the purchase price paid by WLR, less the proportionate share of production paid by the Company. For the third year, the repurchase price is the same with the multiplier increased to 1.75. After the third year, the repurchase period expires.

The Company entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement with WLWI (the “WI Agreement” and, together with the ORRI Agreement, the “Winkler Lea Agreements”), pursuant to which the Company sold an undivided 49% of its right, title and interest in certain undeveloped assets located in Winkler and Loving Counties, Texas, consisting of approximately 749 net acres. The WI Agreement provides that the Company must drill, complete and equip five commitment wells after closing. Contemporaneously with the purchase, WLWI paid a drilling advance which funded its proportionate share of the development costs to drill, complete and equip such commitment wells. Any drilling cost overruns or costs incurred below estimated costs are the responsibility of the Company. The WI Agreement provides the Company with a right to repurchase all, but not less than all, of the interest for a period of three years and an obligation, at WLWI's election only upon a change of control, to repurchase all, but not less than all, of the interest, and also includes certain limitations on WLWI's right to transfer the interest during such three year period without the consent of the Company. The repurchase price is 1.5 times the consideration paid by WLWI plus additional capital expenditures of WLWI. The repurchase period expires after three years.

As a result of the repurchase rights, the agreements with WLR and WLWI do not meet the criteria for a conveyance or sale of assets under ASC 932 and are accounted for as a financing arrangement under ASC 470. The net proceeds of the transaction of $39.0 million are included in long-term deferred revenue and other long-term liabilities on the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2019. WLR's proportionate share of production of $0.1 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 are included in interest expense on the Company's condensed consolidated statements of operations. None of the properties included in the WI Agreement were producing as of September 30, 2019.

On August 16, 2019, we sold approximately 513 noncontiguous net acres in New Mexico for net cash proceeds of $16.6 million, which was recorded as a reduction to the full cost pool. The Company repurchased certain overriding royalty interests in the acreage previously sold to WLR under the ORRI Agreement for $2.6 million, resulting in a $1.3 million loss on extinguishment of a portion of the financing arrangement and is included in loss on early extinguishment of debt on the Company's condensed consolidated statements of operations.

NOTE 6 - ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATIONS

The Company’s asset retirement obligations (“ARO”) represent the present value of the estimated cash flows expected to be incurred to plug, abandon and remediate producing properties, excluding salvage values, at the end of their productive lives in accordance with applicable laws. Revisions in estimated liabilities during the period relate primarily to changes in estimates of asset retirement costs. Revisions in estimated liabilities can also include, but are not limited to, revisions of estimated inflation rates, changes in property lives and expected timing of settlement.

The following table summarizes the changes in the Company’s ARO for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~ September 30, 2020 and for the year ended December 31, 2019:

15NOTE 7 – REVENUE

NOTE 7 - REVENUE

Revenue is recognized when control passes to the purchaser, which generally occurs when production is transferred to the purchaser. The Company measures revenue as the amount of consideration it expects to receive in exchange for the commodities transferred. All of the Company’s revenues from contracts with customers represent products transferred at a point in time as control is transferred to the customer.

The Company records revenue based on consideration specified in its contracts with its customers. The amounts collected on behalf of third parties are recorded in revenue payable. The Company recognizes revenue in the amount that reflects the consideration it expects to receive in exchange for transferring control of those goods to the customer. The contract consideration in the Company’s variable price contracts is typically allocated to specific performance obligations in the contract according to the price stated in the contract. Payment is generally received one or two months after the sale has occurred.

Crude Oil Revenues

Crude oil from our operated properties is produced and stored in field tanks. The Company recognizes crude oil revenue when control passes to the purchaser. Effective January 1, 2019 through February 28, 2019, the Company’s crude oil was sold under a single short-term contract. The purchaser’s commitment included all quantities of crude oil from the leases that were covered by the contract, with no quantity-based restrictions or variable terms. Pricing was based on posted indexes for crude oil of similar quality, less a negotiable fees deduction of $5.15 per barrel.

Effective March 1, 2019 through May 8, 2020, the Company’s crude oil was sold under a single long-term contract. The purchaser’s commitment had a quantity-based minimum set forth in the contract, measured in barrels per day, with the minimum quantity commitment increasing at periodic intervals over the life of the contract to coincide with the Company’s expected growth in production.

Pursuant to the long-term contract, pricing was based on posted indexes for crude oil of similar quality, with a differential based on pipeline delivery to Houston, as opposed to the previous contract differential based on truck delivery to Midland-Cushing, along with a differential basis reduction of $9.25 per barrel that was effective from March 1, 2019 through ~~June~~September 30, 2019, which decreased to $6.50 per barrel for the period of July 1, 2019 through May 8, 2020. The posted index prices and differentials change monthly based on the average of daily index price points for each sales month. The purchaser’s affiliate shipper also charged a tariff fee of $0.75 as a deduction from the received price (see Note 19 – Commitments and Contingencies). On May 8, 2020 the Company terminated the firm sales contract in accordance with the Company’s rights in the agreement.

decreased to $6.50 per barrel for the period of July 1, 2019 through May 8, 2020. The posted index prices and differentials change monthly based on the average of daily index price points for each sales month. The purchaser’s affiliate shipper also charged a tariff fee of $0.75 as a deduction from the received price (see Note 19 – Commitments and Contingencies). On May 8, 2020 the Company terminated the firm sales contract in accordance with the Company’s rights in the agreement.

Effective May 9, 2020, the Company’s crude oil is sold under a single month-to-month contract. The purchaser’s commitment includes all quantities of crude oil from the leases covered by the contract, with no quantity-based restrictions or variable terms. Pricing is based on posted indexes for crude oil of similar quality, less a per barrel reduction for gathering.

Natural Gas and NGL Revenues

Natural gas from our properties is produced and transported via pipelines to gas processing facilities. NGLs are extracted from the natural gas at the processing facilities and processed natural gas and NGLs are marketed and sold separately on the Company’s behalf after processing. All our operated natural gas production is sold under one of two natural gas contracts, both of which are long-term in nature; however, one of these natural gas contracts includes 30-day cancellation provisions, and the Company therefore classifies such contract as short-term. The processor’s commitment to sell on the Company’s behalf includes all quantities of natural gas and NGLs produced from specific wellbores or dedicated acreage with no quantity-based restrictions or variable terms. Pricing under the gas contracts is generally market-based pricing less adjustments for transportation and processing fees. A portion of natural gas delivered to the processing plants is used as fuel at the processing plant without reimbursement. The Company recognizes revenue for natural gas and NGLs when control passes at the tailgate of the processing plant.

Gathering, Processing and Transportation

Natural gas must be transported to a gas processing plant facility for treatment and to extract NGLs, then the final residue gas and liquid products are marketed for sale to end users at the tailgate of the plant. As a result of these activities, the Company incurs costs that are contractually passed to it from the gatherer per customary industry practice. Such costs include fees for gathering the gas and moving it from wellhead to plant inlet, plant electricity usage, inlet compression, carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide treatments, processing tax, fuel usage, and marketing at the tailgate. Gathering, processing and transportation costs are presented as operating expenses in the consolidated statement of operations.

Imbalances

Natural gas imbalances occur when the Company sells more or less than its entitled ownership percentage of total natural gas production. Any amount received in excess of its share is treated as a liability. If the Company receives less than its entitled share, the under production is recorded as a receivable. The Company did not have any significant natural gas imbalance positions as of ~~June~~September 30, 2020 and 2019.

Contract balances and prior period performance obligations

The Company is entitled to payment from purchasers once its performance obligations have been satisfied upon delivery of the product, at which point payment is unconditional, and the Company records these invoiced amounts as accounts receivable in its condensed consolidated balance sheets. To the extent actual volumes and prices of oil and natural gas are unavailable for a given reporting period because of timing or information not received from third parties, the expected sales volumes and prices for those properties are estimated and also recorded as accounts receivable in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. In this scenario, payment is unconditional, as the Company has satisfied its performance obligations through delivery of the relevant product. As a result, the Company has concluded that its product sales do not give rise to contract assets or liabilities.

The Company records revenue in the month production is delivered to the purchaser. However, settlement statements for certain oil, natural gas and NGL sales may not be received for 30 to 60 days after the date production is delivered, and as a result, the Company is required to estimate the amount of production that was delivered to the customer and the price that will be received for the sale of the product. Additionally, to the extent actual volumes and prices of oil, natural gas and NGLs are unavailable for a given reporting period because of timing or information not received from third-party purchasers, the expected sales volumes and prices for those barrels of oil, cubic feet of gas and gallons of NGL are also estimated. The Company records the differences between its estimates and the actual amounts received for product sales in the month that payment is received from the purchaser. The Company has existing internal controls in place for its estimation process, and any identified differences between its revenue estimates and actual revenue received historically have not been significant.

Significant judgments

The Company engages in various types of transactions in which midstream entities process its gas and subsequently market resulting NGLs and residue gas to third-party customers on the Company’s behalf per gas purchase contracts. These types of transactions require judgment to determine whether the Company is the principal or the agent in the contract and, as a result, whether revenues are recorded gross or net. The Company maintains control of the natural gas and NGLs during processing and considers itself the principal in these arrangements.

The Company maintains control of the natural gas and NGLs during processing and considers itself the principal in these arrangements.

Practical expedients

A significant number of the Company’s product sales are short-term in nature with contract term of one year or less. For those contracts, the Company utilizes the practical expedient that exempts the Company from disclosure of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations if the performance obligation is part of a contract that has an original expected duration of one year or less. For the Company’s product sales that have contract terms less than one year, the Company utilizes the practical expedient in the new revenue standard that states that it is not required to disclose the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations if the variable consideration is allocated entirely to a wholly unsatisfied performance obligation. Under these sales contracts, each unit of product represents a separate performance obligation; therefore, future volumes are wholly unsatisfied and disclosure of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations is not required.

The following table disaggregates the Company’s revenue by contract type (in thousands) for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020:

Customer Credit Risk

Our principal exposure to credit risk is through receivables from the sale of our oil and natural gas production of approximately $45.83 million and $9.1 million at ~~June~~September 30, 2020 and December 31 2019, respectively, and through actual and accrued receivables from our joint interest partners of approximately $43.10 million and $9.5 million at ~~June~~September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. We are subject to credit risk due to the concentration of our oil and natural gas receivables with our most significant customers. We do not require our customers to post collateral, and the inability of our significant customers to meet their obligations to us or their insolvency or liquidation may adversely affect our financial results.

Major Customers

During the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company’s major customers as a percentage of total revenue consisted of the following:

NOTE 8 - FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company measures the fair value of its financial assets on a three-tier value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in the valuation methodologies in measuring fair value:

•

Level 1 - Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

•

Level 2 - Other inputs that are directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace.

•

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity.

The fair value hierarchy also requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.

Determination of the fair values of our derivative contracts incorporates various factors, including not only the impact of our non-performance risk on our liabilities, but also the credit standing of the counterparties involved. The Company utilizes counterparty rate of default values to assess the impact of non-performance risk when evaluating both our liabilities to, and receivables from, counterparties.

Derivative assets and liabilities include unsettled amounts related to commodity derivative positions, including swaps and collars, as of ~~June~~December 3031, ~~2020~~2019. ~~and~~The ~~December~~Company 31had no outstanding commodity positions as of September 30, ~~2019~~2020. The fair value of the Company’s derivatives is based on third-party pricing models which utilize inputs that are either readily in the public market or which can be corroborated from active markets of broker quotes. Swaps and collars generally have observable inputs and these instruments are measured using Level 2 inputs.

In addition, derivative liabilities as of December 31, 2019 include an embedded derivative associated with the ARM sales agreement (see Note 19 - Commitments and Contingencies). As a result of the cancelation of the ARM sales agreement on May 8, 2020, the Company recognized a gain in change of fair value of financial instruments of $20.6 million ~~for~~in the ~~three~~second ~~months ended June 30, 2020~~quarter. This embedded derivative had fewer observable inputs from objective sources and are therefore measured using Level 3 inputs. The fair value of the net settlement provisions under the agreement was determined based on certain assumptions including (1) forward pricing for crude oil basis differentials, (ii) future LIBOR rates and (iii) the Company’s implied credit rating.

The following table sets forth a reconciliation of changes in the fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy, except for the commodity derivatives classified as Level 2, as disclosed in Note 9, as of June 30, 2020 and 2019:

Embedded Derivatives

As discussed in Note 19 - Commitments and Contingencies, the ARM sales agreement contained minimum quantity commitments. Should the Company be unable to meet those minimum commitments, the agreement contained a two way make whole provision that allowed for net settlement. The net settlement feature for remaining future minimum commitment volumes was ~~considered embedded derivatives that was recorded, with changes in fair value included in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations.~~

As of December 31, 2019, the derivative liability associated with the ARM sales agreement was approximately $3.2 million with $0.8 million recorded in current derivative instruments and $2.4 million recorded in long-term derivative instruments on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. On May 8, 2020, the Company terminated this agreement with ARM which resulted in a change in fair value of the embedded derivative of $20.6 million during the three ended June 30, 2020. The change in fair value of embedded derivative liabilities for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $3.2 million. See Note 19 - Commitments and Contingencies for additional information.

Commodity Derivatives

To reduce the impact of fluctuations in oil and natural gas prices on the Company’s revenues and to protect the economics of property acquisitions, the Company periodically enters into derivative contracts with respect to a portion of its projected oil and natural gas production through various transactions that fix or modify the future prices to be realized. The derivative contracts may include fixed-for-floating price swaps (whereby, on the settlement date, the Company will receive or pay an amount based on the difference between a pre-determined fixed price and a variable market price for a notional quantity of production), put options (whereby the Company pays a cash premium in order to establish a fixed floor price for a notional quantity of production and, on the settlement date, receives the excess, if any, of the fixed floor price over a variable market price), and costless collars (whereby, on the settlement date, the Company receives the excess, if any, of a variable market price over a fixed floor price up to a fixed ceiling price for a notional quantity of production).

Our hedging activities are intended to support oil and natural gas prices at targeted levels and manage exposure to oil and natural gas price fluctuations, as well as to meet our obligations under our Revolving Credit Agreement (as defined in Note 11 - Indebtedness). It is our policy to enter into derivative contracts only with counterparties that are creditworthy and competitive market makers. All of our derivatives are designated as unsecured. Certain of our derivative counterparties may require the posting of cash collateral under certain conditions. The Company does not enter into derivative contracts for speculative trading purposes.

All of our derivatives are accounted for as mark-to-market activities. Under Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging,” these instruments are recorded on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets at fair value as either short-term or long-term assets or liabilities based on their anticipated settlement date. The Company nets derivative assets and liabilities by commodity for counterparties where a legal right to such offset exists. Because the Company has elected not to designate its current derivative contracts as cash flow hedges for accounting purposes, changes in the fair values of the derivatives are recognized in current earnings.

As a result of the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases, our ability to enter into derivatives is limited.

The Forbearance Agreement permitted the lenders under the Revolving Credit Agreement, or the RBL Lenders, in their capacity as counterparties to the Company’s commodity swap agreements to unwind and liquidate such swap arrangements during the Forbearance Period and to apply any net proceeds to pay down the outstanding obligations under the Revolving Credit Agreement. The swap positions of such lenders were liquidated on June 9, 2020, for net proceeds of approximately $9.3 million, which was applied to reduce the outstanding obligations of the Company under the Revolving Credit Agreement. As a result of the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases the remaining outstanding derivative contracts were in default and the remaining counterparties terminated all outstanding contracts in July for the final settlement amount of $1.9 million which is included in liabilities subject to compromise.

The following table presents the Company’s derivative position for the production periods indicated as of June 30, 2020:

NOTE 10 – LEASES

Lease Recognition

The Company has entered into contractual lease arrangements to rent office space, compressors, drilling rigs and other equipment from third-party lessors. Right-of-use (“ROU”) assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make future lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recorded at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability include fixed payments and termination penalties or extensions that are reasonably certain to be exercised. Variable lease costs associated with leases are recognized when incurred and generally represent maintenance services provided by the lessor, allocable real estate taxes and local sales and business taxes. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. The Company recognizes lease expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company does not account for lease components separately from the non-lease components. The Company uses the implicit interest rate when readily determinable; however, most of the Company’s lease agreements do not provide an implicit interest rate. As such, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date of the contract in determining the present value of future lease payments. The incremental borrowing rate is calculated using a risk-free interest rate adjusted for the Company’s risk. Operating lease ROU assets also include any lease incentives received in the recognition of the present value of future lease payments. Certain of the Company’s leases may also include escalation clauses or options to extend

interest rate adjusted for the Company’s risk. Operating lease ROU assets also include any lease incentives received in the recognition of the present value of future lease payments. Certain of the Company’s leases may also include escalation clauses or ~~options to extend or~~ terminate the lease. These options are included in the present value recorded for the leases when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

The Company determines if an arrangement is or contains a lease at inception of the contract and records the resulting operating lease asset on the consolidated balance sheets as an asset, with offsetting liabilities recorded as a liability. The Company recognizes a lease in the consolidated financial statements when the arrangement either explicitly or implicitly involves property or equipment, the contract terms are dependent on the use of the property or equipment, and the Company has the ability or right to operate the property or equipment or to direct others to operate the property or equipment and receives greater than 10% of the economic benefits of the assets. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2020, the Company does not have any financing leases.

InDuring ~~July,~~ the ~~motion~~third quarter of 2020, motions the Debtors filed to reject ~~certain immaterial~~ unexpired office leases ~~was~~were approved by the Bankruptcy Court resulting in reduction of the lease liability of $1.5 million.

The Company’s ROU assets and operating lease liabilities were included in the consolidated balance sheets as follows (in thousands):

During the first quarter of 2020, the Company entered into six new equipment leases resulting in lease liabilities and ROU assets of $0.5 million.

During the third quarter of 2020, the Company entered into a new office lease resulting in lease liability of $0.5 million and ROU asset of $0.6 million.

Lease costs represent the straight line lease expense of ROU assets, short-term leases, and variable lease costs. The components of lease cost were classified as follows (in thousands):

Debtor-in-Possession Credit Agreement

On June 30, 2020, Lilis Energy, Inc., as borrower, and the other Debtors as guarantors, entered into a Senior Secured Super-Priority Debtor-in-Possession Credit Agreement, or the DIP Credit Agreement among the Debtors, the Non-Affiliate RBL Lenders, and the Administrative Agent. Under the ~~Initial~~ DIP Facility, the ~~Initial~~ DIP Lenders agreed to provide a super-priority senior secured debtor-in-possession credit facility providing for an aggregate principal amount of (i) $15.0 million of new money revolving commitments, of which up to $5.0 million became available upon entry of the Interim DIP Order, ~~with~~and the remainder toof ~~become~~which became available on a final basis upon the Bankruptcy Court’s entry into a final order, plus (ii) a tranche of roll-up term loans to refinance $15.0 million of the outstanding loans under the Revolving Credit Facility, including $1.5 million pre-petition bridge loans that the Non-Affiliate RBL Lenders advanced to the Company on June 17, 2020, of which $1.5 million of roll-up term loans were incurred upon entry of the Interim DIP Order, ~~with~~ the remaining $13.5 million toof bewhich was incurred upon the Bankruptcy Court’s entry of a final order. On June 29, 2020, the Bankruptcy Court entered the Interim DIP Order granting interim approval of the ~~Initial~~ DIP Facility, thereby permitting the Debtors to incur up to $5.0 million new money loans on an interim basis. AOn ~~final~~August ~~hearing~~21, on2020, the ~~Initial~~Bankruptcy Court entered an order granting final approval of the DIP Facility, ~~and~~thereby ~~Initial~~permitting ~~DIP~~the ~~Credit~~Company ~~Agreement~~to isborrow ~~scheduled~~an ~~for~~additional $10.0 million. Also on August 1821, 2020, the Company used $13.5 million in roll-up term loans under the DIP Facility to refinance $13.5 million of the outstanding loan under the Revolving Credit Facility. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2020, there was $630.50 million outstanding under the ~~Debtor-in-Possession~~DIP Credit Agreement.

Subject to approval by the Bankruptcy Court, the proceeds of the Initial DIP Facility will be used to pay fees, expenses and other expenditures of the Company RSA Parties to be set forth in rolling budgets prepared as part of the Chapter 11 Cases, subject to approval by the Initial DIP Lenders. Closing the Initial DIP Facility is contingent on the satisfaction of customary conditions, including receipt of a final order by the Bankruptcy Court approving the Initial DIP Facility and the Initial DIP Credit Agreement.24

25In connection with the Debtors’ transition to a sole pursuit of the Sales Process, the Debtors, the Administrative Agent and the DIP Facility Lenders amended the DIP Credit Agreement to extend certain milestones in the DIP Facility as the Debtors pivoted to the Sales Process on August 17, 2020, August 21, 2020, August 28, 2020, September 8, 2020, September 29, 2020 and October 7, 2020. The proceeds of the DIP Facility are being used to pay fees, expenses and other expenditures of the Company to be set forth in rolling budgets prepared as part of the Chapter 11 Cases, which are subject to approval by the DIP Lenders.

Borrowings under the ~~Initial~~ DIP Facility bear interest at a floating rate of either LIBOR or a specified base rate plus a margin ~~determined~~of ~~based~~(i) ~~upon~~if ~~the~~a ~~usage~~new ofmoney ~~the~~loan, ~~borrowing~~6.5% for LIBOR borrowings or 5.5% for specified base rate borrowings or (ii) if a roll-up loan, 5.5% for LIBOR borrowings or 4.5% for specified base rate borrowings. The weighted average interest rate on the ~~initial~~ DIP ~~facility~~Facility at ~~June~~September 30, 2020 was 7.3%. Borrowings under the ~~Initial~~ DIP Facility mature on the earliest of (i) November 30, 2020, (ii) the effective date of an approved ~~plan~~Chapter of11 ~~reorganization~~plan and (iii) the date on which the Debtors consummate a sale of all or substantially all of their assets pursuant to Section 363 of Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise, including pursuant to the Sales Process.

The ~~Initial~~ DIP Credit Agreement contains events of default customary for debtor-in-possession financings, including events related to the Chapter 11 proceedings, the occurrence of which could cause the acceleration of the Debtors’ obligation to repay borrowings outstanding under the ~~Initial~~ DIP Facility. The Debtors’ obligations under the ~~Initial~~ DIP Credit Agreement are secured by a security interest in, and liens on, substantially all present and after-acquired property (whether tangible, intangible, real, personal or mixed) of the Debtors, including a super-priority priming lien on the property of the Debtors that secure their obligations under the Revolving Credit Facility.

Revolving Credit Agreement

On October 10, 2018, the Company entered into a five-year, $500.0 million senior secured revolving credit agreement by and among the Company, as borrower, certain subsidiaries of the Company, as guarantors (the “Guarantors”), the Administrative Agent, and the lenders party thereto (as amended, the “Revolving Credit Agreement”). The Revolving Credit Agreement provides for a senior secured reserves based revolving credit facility with a borrowing base of $115.0 million as of December 31, 2019. The borrowing base is subject to semiannual re-determinations in May and November of each year. As provided for in the Seventh Amendment and as a result of a decrease in commodity prices, the borrowing base was decreased to $90.0 million on January 17, 2020. The reduction in the borrowing base resulted in a borrowing base deficiency as of January 17, 2020, of $25.0 million. We made scheduled repayments of $17.3 million and the remaining $7.8 million was due on June 5, 2020, which the Company did not pay when due.

On June 5, 2020, the Company, the Guarantors, the Administrative Agent and certain lenders entered into the Forbearance Agreement. See Note 2 - Chapter 11 Filing, Liquidity and Going Concern for a description of the terms of the Forbearance Agreement.

On the Petition Date, the Debtors filed voluntary petitions seeking relief under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code in the Bankruptcy Court commencing cases for relief under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code. Under the Plan contemplated by the RSA, each Non-Affiliate RBL Lender will receive its pro rata share of (i) $9.2 million in cash plus all accrued and unpaid interest as of the Petition Date (estimated to be $0.7 million), and (ii) participations in $55 million of new loans under the Exit Facility. See Note 2 - Chapter 11 Filing, Liquidity and Going Concern for a description of the terms of the Chapter 11 Cases, ~~the RSA~~ and the Plan and the impact of the Chapter 11 Cases on the outstanding debt under our Revolving Credit Agreement.

Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Agreement bear interest at a floating rate of either LIBOR or a specified base rate plus a margin ~~determined~~of ~~based~~(i) ~~upon~~if ~~the~~a ~~usage~~new ofmoney ~~the~~loan, ~~borrowing~~6.5% for LIBOR borrowings or 5.5% for specified base rate borrowings or (ii) if a roll-up loan, 5.5% for LIBOR borrowings or 4.5% for specified base rate borrowings. The Company is required to pay a commitment fee of 0.5% per annum on any unused portion of the borrowing base. The Company’s obligations under the Revolving Credit Agreement are secured by first priority liens on substantially all of the Company’s and the Guarantors’ assets and are unconditionally guaranteed by each of the Guarantors.

2625

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2020, outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Agreement were $8874.49 million. The Revolving Credit Agreement also provides for issuance of letters of credit in an aggregate amount of up to $5.0 million. As of December 31, 2019, indebtedness outstanding under our Revolving Credit Agreement, was classified as current liability due to uncertainty of the Company’s ability to meet debt covenants over the next twelve months and the lender's ability to call the debt in the event of a default. As a result of the filing of the Chapter 11 Cases, all indebtedness under the Revolving Credit Agreement was automatically accelerated and became due and payable and is included in liabilities subject to compromise in our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of ~~June~~September 30, 2020.

The Company capitalizes certain direct costs associated with the debt issuance under the Revolving Credit Agreement and amortizes such costs over the term of the debt instrument. For the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company amortized debt issuance costs associated with the Revolving Credit Agreement of $0.2 million and $0.1 million, respectively. For the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company amortized debt issuance costs associated with the Revolving Credit Agreement of $0.8 million and $0.3 million, respectively. As a result of the classification of the Revolving Credit Agreement as a liability subject to compromise as of ~~June~~September 30, 2020, the unamortized debt issuance costs of $2.0 million were written off to reorganization items, net on the condensed consolidated statements of Operations. As of December 31, 2019, the Company had $2.6 million of unamortized deferred financing costs in other current assets.

The Revolving Credit Agreement contains certain customary representations and warranties and affirmative and negative covenants, including covenants relating to: maintenance of books and records; financial reporting and notification; compliance with laws; maintenance of properties and insurance; and limitations on incurrence of indebtedness, liens, fundamental changes, international operations, asset sales, certain debt payments and amendments, restrictive agreements, investments, dividends and other restricted payments and hedging. It also requires the Company to maintain a ratio of total debt to EBITDAX (the “Leverage Ratio”) of not more than 4.00 to 1.00 and a ratio of current assets to current liabilities (the “Current Ratio”) of not less than 1.00 to 1.00 as of the last day of each fiscal quarter.

Pursuant to the Forbearance Agreement, the Administrative Agent and the requisite lenders under the Revolving Credit Agreement agreed to refrain from exercising certain of their rights and remedies under the Revolving Credit Agreement and related documents during the Forbearance Period that arose solely as a result of the Company’s breach of the Leverage Ratio and Current Ratio covenants, the Company’s failure to pay remaining borrowing base deficiency and certain other defaults or events of default. See Note 2 - Chapter 11 Filing, Liquidity and Going Concern, for additional information.

Subject to certain exceptions, under the Bankruptcy Code, the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases automatically enjoined, or stayed, the continuation of most judicial or administrative proceedings or the filing of other actions against the Debtors or their property to recover, collect or secure a claim arising prior to the Petition Date. Creditors are stayed from taking any actions against the Debtors as a result of debt defaults, subject to certain limited exceptions permitted by the Bankruptcy Code. There can be no assurances that the Administrative Agent and the RBL lenders will consensually agree to a restructuring of the Revolving Credit Agreement. Any proposed non-consensual restructuring of the Revolving Credit Agreement could result in substantial delay in emergence from bankruptcy and there can be no assurances that the Bankruptcy Court would approve such proposed non-consensual restructuring.

Prior to the Forbearance Agreement entered into on June 5, 2020 and the filing of the Chapter 11 Cases on June 28, 2020, the Company entered into various amendments to the Revolving Credit Agreement which included:

•

a borrowing base redetermination as of January 14, 2020 resulting in the borrowing base reduced to $90 million and a borrowing base deficiency in the amount of $25 million under the Revolving Credit Agreement, required to be paid in four equal monthly installments;

•

various amendments to extend the installment payments required as a result of the borrowing base deficiency;

•

waived the requirement under the Revolving Credit Agreement that the Company comply with a leverage ratio and a current ratio, in each case, as of December 31, 2019, and March 31, 2020, and granted certain other waivers, including the requirement to comply with certain hedging obligations set forth in the Revolving Credit Agreement until June 30, 2020. See Note 2 - Chapter 11 Filing, Liquidity and Going Concern, for additional information;

•

an extension of an additional 45 days for the Company to provide its audited annual financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, and waived the requirement that such financial statements be delivered without a “going concern” or like qualification or exception; and

2726

•

defer the timing of the scheduled spring redetermination of the borrowing base under the Revolving Credit Agreement from on or about May 1, 2020 to on or about June 5, 2020 (which was further extended to on or about June 26, 2020 pursuant to the Forbearance Agreement).

Second Lien Credit Agreement

On March 5, 2019, the Company entered into a transaction agreement (the “2019 Transaction Agreement”) by and among the Company and the Värde Parties pursuant to which, among other matters, the Company issued to the Värde Parties shares of two new series of its preferred stock and shares of its common stock, as consideration for the termination of the Second Lien Credit Agreement and the satisfaction in full, in lieu of repayment in cash, of the Second Lien Term Loan. Specifically, in exchange for satisfaction of the outstanding principal amount of the Second Lien Term Loan, accrued and unpaid interest thereon and the make-whole amount totaling approximately $133.6 million (the “Second Lien Exchange Amount”), the Company issued to the Värde Parties:

•

an aggregate of 55,000 shares of a newly created series of preferred stock of the Company, designated as “Series F 9.00% Participating Preferred Stock” (the “Series F Preferred Stock”), corresponding to $55 million of the Second Lien Exchange Amount based on the aggregate initial Stated Value (as defined in Note 14 - Preferred Stock) of the shares of Series F Preferred Stock;

•

an aggregate of 60,000 shares of a newly created series of preferred stock of the Company, designated as “Series E 8.25% Convertible Participating Preferred Stock” (the “Series E Preferred Stock”), corresponding to $60 million of the Second Lien Exchange Amount based on the aggregate initial Stated Value (as defined in Note 14 - Preferred Stock) of the shares of Series E Preferred Stock; and

•

9,891,638 shares of common stock, corresponding to approximately $18.6 million of the Second Lien Exchange Amount, based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the NYSE American on March 4, 2019 of $1.88.

Subsequent to this transaction, the Company’s indebtedness consists solely of borrowings under the Revolving Credit Agreement and, ~~subject to~~ the ~~Bankruptcy Court’s approval, the~~ DIP credit facility.

In March 2019, as a result of the satisfaction in full of the Second Lien Term Loan pursuant to the 2019 Transaction Agreement, the Company recorded a gain on extinguishment of debt of $7.1 million, which was recorded as an increase in additional paid in capital due to the Värde Parties, being existing shareholders of the Company.

SCM Water LLC’s Option to Exercise Purchase of Saltwater Disposal Assets

In July 2018, the Company entered into a water gathering and disposal agreement and a contract operating and right of first refusal agreement with SCM Water, LLC (“SCM Water”), a subsidiary of Salt Creek Midstream, LLC (“Salt Creek”). The water gathering agreement complements the Company’s existing water disposal infrastructure, and the Company has reserved the right to recycle its produced water. SCM Water will commence, upon receipt of regulatory approval, to build out new gathering and disposal infrastructure to all of the Company’s current and future well locations in Lea County, New Mexico, and Winkler County, Texas. All future capital expenditures to construct, maintain and operate the water gathering system will be fully funded by SCM Water and will be designed to accommodate all water produced by the Company’s operations. Pursuant to the contract operating agreement, the Company will act as contract operator of SCM Water’s saltwater disposal wells.

Additionally, the Company sold to SCM Water an option to acquire the Company’s existing water infrastructure, a system which is comprised of approximately 14 miles of pipeline and one SWD well, for cash consideration upon closing, with additional payments based on reaching certain milestones.

On March 11, 2019, the Company, SCM Water, and ARM Energy Management, LLC (“ARM”), a related company to SCM Water, agreed to amend the terms of the previously negotiated water gathering and disposal agreement and entered into a new crude oil sales contract (See Note 7 - Revenue and Note 19 - Commitments and Contingencies). Under the terms of such agreements, the Company agreed to an increase in salt water disposal rates in exchange for more favorable pricing differentials on the crude oil sales contract, modification on the minimum quantities of crude oil required under the crude oil sales contract, an upfront payment of $2.5 million and the elimination of the potential bonus for hitting a target of 40,000 barrels of produced water per day. The Company determined that the upfront $2.5 million payment was primarily attributable to the crude oil sales contract, and the Company recorded the $2.5 million payment as deferred revenues. For the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020, the Company has recognized, in income ratably as the crude oil was sold, $0.1 million. On May 8, 2020 the Company terminated the firm sales contract in accordance with the Company’s rights in the agreement. The remaining deferred balance of $2.2 million was recognized upon cancelation of the crude oil sales contract on May 8, 2020, in oil revenues on our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Crude Oil Gathering Agreement and Option Agreement

On May 21, 2018, the Company entered into a crude oil gathering agreement and option agreement with Salt Creek. The crude oil gathering agreement (the “Gathering Agreement”) enables Salt Creek to (i) design, engineer, and construct a gathering system which will provide gathering services for the Company’s crude oil under a tariff arrangement and (ii) gather the Company’s crude oil on the gathering system in certain production areas located in Winkler and Loving Counties, Texas and Lea County, New Mexico. The Gathering Agreement had a term of 12 years that automatically renewed on a year to year basis until terminated by either party. On May 6, 2020, the Company terminated the Gathering Agreement in its entirety on the basis that, among other things, SCM failed to timely build and properly equip a crude pipeline gathering system by the date specified in the Gathering Agreement. See Note 19 - Commitments and Contingencies for a description of certain litigation concerning the Gathering Agreement, Salt Creek and ARM.

Salt Creek and the Company also entered into an option agreement (the “Option Agreement”) whereby the Company granted an option to Salt Creek to provide certain midstream services related to natural gas in Winkler and Loving Counties, Texas and Lea County, New Mexico, subject to the expiration and terms of the Company’s existing gas agreement. The Option Agreement has a term commencing May 21, 2018 and terminating January 1, 2027, pursuant to its one-time option. As consideration for this option, the Company received a one-time payment of $35.0 million, which was recorded in long-term deferred revenue.

Asset Disposition Accounted for as a Financing Arrangement

As a result of certain repurchase rights contained in the ~~agreements with affiliates of Värde for the sale of overriding royalty interests to~~ Winkler Lea ~~Royalty L.P. ("WLR") and the sale of working interests to Winkler Lea Working Interest L.P. ("WLWI")~~Agreements, ~~entered into in July 2019,~~ the agreements do not meet the criteria for a sale and were accounted for as a financing arrangement under ASC 470 - Debt. The net proceeds of the ~~transaction~~transactions under the Winkler Lea Agreements of $39.0 million were included in long-term deferred revenue and other long-term liabilities on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets as of ~~June~~September 30, 2020 and December 2019. As a result of the ~~transaction~~transactions, the net revenue payments of $0.27 million and $12.85 million for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020, respectively, are included in interest expense on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Under the ~~working~~WI ~~interest agreement with WLWI~~Agreement, the Company did not meet the schedule to bring the 4th and 5th wells to production, which was due to occur at the end of June. WLWI may be entitled to liquidated damages under the agreement, subject to any rights and defenses the Company may have.

29The Debtors filed a motion (the “Motion to Clarify”) seeking an order clarifying the Debtors could sell, and buyers might purchase, the Winkler Lea Assets free and clear of certain purported covenants running with the land and other interests that arise under the Winkler Lea Agreements. Relatedly, the Debtors sought a finding that the change of control provisions and tag-along rights under the Winkler Lea Agreements in favor of Värde were not enforceable pursuant to section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code in connection with a sale of the Debtors’ assets pursuant to section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code in the event any buyer wished to assume

such agreements. The Debtors have argued that they can sell their assets free and clear of certain covenants and interests arising under the Winkler Lea Agreements pursuant to section 363(f) of the Bankruptcy Code. The relevant Värde parties have disputed the Debtors’ motion and contend that certain covenants under the Winkler Lea Agreements run with the land and cannot be extinguished through a sale under section 363(f) of the Bankruptcy Code and under applicable state and federal law. On October 12, 2020, as part of the Global Settlement, the Debtors and the Värde Parties reached a settlement regarding the Motion to Clarify.

On April 21, 2020, Värde Investment Partners, L.P., an affiliate of Värde Partners, Inc., became a lender under our Revolving Credit Agreement by acquiring, from a prior lender, loans and commitments under the Revolving Credit Agreement in the principal amount of approximately $25.7 million. The loans and commitments acquired by Värde Investment Partners, L.P. are subject to certain subordination provisions set forth in the Revolving Credit Agreement, as amended by the Fourteenth Amendment thereto dated April 21, 2020. For additional information regarding our Revolving Credit Agreement, as amended (see Note 11 - Indebtedness).

On July 31, 2019, the Company entered into two agreements with affiliates of Varde for the sale of an overriding royalty interest, to WLR, and a non- operated working interest in newly developed assets, to WLWI. For the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020, WLR’s proportionate share of revenue was ~~none~~$0.2 million and $0.24 million, respectively and $0.1 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019. WLWI's net revenue (revenue less production costs) for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020 were $0.25 million and $12.61 million, respectively. Both are included in interest expense on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations.

On June 29, 2020, the Bankruptcy Court entered an interim order, and on August 14, 2020, the court entered a final order, establishing certain procedures and restrictions with respect to the direct or indirect purchase, disposition or other transfer of the Company’s preferred stock and common stock by holders of its preferred stock and certain substantial holders of its common stock. The ~~interim~~final order requires notices of the holdings of, and proposed transactions by, any person or entity that is or, because of the transaction, would become, a substantial holder of the Company’s common stock or preferred stock, and restricts certain trading in such common stock or preferred stock. Any prohibited transfer of the Company’s common stock or preferred stock would be null and void ~~ab initio~~ and will cause reversal of the noncompliant transaction and such other (or additional) measures as the Bankruptcy Court may deem appropriate.

NOTE 15 - STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY (DEFICIT)

Issuance of Common Stock

On January 31, 2020, the Company issued 4,431,817 shares of the Company’s common stock, with a fair value of $1.0 million at the time of issuance, to the board of directors for payment of annual board of directors fees.

Under the Plan ~~contemplated by the RSA entered into on June 28~~, ~~2020,~~ each outstanding share of the Company’s common stock will be canceled for no consideration. The Company believes it is unlikely that the holders of shares of its common stock will receive any consideration for their shares under any plan approved by the Bankruptcy Court~~, irrespective of whether such plan contemplates terms consistent with or similar to those agreed upon in the RSA~~. See Note 2 - Chapter 11 Filing, Liquidity and Going Concern for a description of the terms of the Chapter 11 Cases.

On June 29, 2020, the Company received notification from the NYSE American LLC (the “NYSE American”) that the staff of NYSE Regulation, Inc. (“NYSE Regulation”) had determined to commence proceedings to delist the Common Stock from the NYSE American. Trading of shares of the Company’s common stock on the NYSE American was suspended effective June 29, 2020. The Company’s common stock began to be quoted on the OTC Pink marketplace on June 30, 2020 under the symbol “LLEXQ”.

NOTE 19 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

ARM Sales Agreement

On August 2, 2018, the Company executed a five-year agreement with SCM Crude, LLC, an affiliate of Salt Creek, to secure firm takeaway pipeline capacity and pricing on a long-haul pipeline to the Gulf Coast region commencing July 1, 2019. On March 11, 2019, the agreement was replaced with a five-year agreement between the Company and ARM, a related company to Salt Creek. The new agreement accelerated the start date to March 2019 and guaranteed firm takeaway capacity on a long-haul pipeline to Corpus Christi, Texas, once completed, at a specified price. The Company received pricing differentials on the crude oil sales contract subject to minimum quantities of crude oil to be delivered, however, due to the May 8, 2020 termination of this agreement with ARM, these minimum quantity commitments no longer existed at ~~June~~September 30, 2020. A table of the minimum quantities of crude oil under the canceled contract is below:

Date	Quantity (Barrels per Day)
March 2019 - June 2019		5,000
July 2019 - December 2019		4,000
January 2020 - June 2020		5,000
July 2020 - June 2021		6,000
July 2021 - December 2024 ⁽¹⁾		7,500

⁽¹⁾	Extending to the later of December 2024 or 5 years from the EPIC Crude Oil pipeline in-service date (February 2025).

Further, ARM agreed to purchase crude from the Company based upon Magellan East Houston pricing with a fixed “differential basis”. The agreement does not meet the criteria for the “normal purchase normal sales” exception under ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging”, as the Company did not meet the minimum quantities deliverable under the contract at certain times in the past and net settlement occurred. See Note 9 - Derivatives to our condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information.

In connection with the termination of the Gathering Agreement, the Company declared force majeure and suspended deliveries of crude oil under the firm sales contract between the Company and ARM, then subsequently terminated the Firm Sales Contract on or about May 8, 2020. On May 8, 2020, ARM, SCM Crude and Salt Creek filed a petition asserting claims against the Company with respect to its termination of certain midstream and marketing arrangements. See below for more information concerning these matters.

Environmental and Governmental Regulation

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2020, there were no known environmental or regulatory matters which are reasonably expected to result in a material liability to the Company. Many aspects of the oil and natural gas industry are extensively regulated by federal, state, and local governments and regulatory agencies in all areas in which the Company has operations. Regulations govern such things as drilling permits, environmental protection and air emissions/pollution control, spacing of wells, the unitization and pooling of properties, reports concerning operations, land use, taxation, and various other matters. Oil and natural gas industry legislation and administrative regulations are periodically changed for a variety of political, economic, and other reasons. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2020, the Company had not been fined or cited for any violations of governmental regulations that would have a material adverse effect on the financial condition of the Company.

Legal Proceedings

The Company may from time to time be involved in various legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the Company’s liability, if any, in these pending actions would not have a material adverse effect on the financial position of the Company. The Company’s general and administrative expenses would include amounts incurred to resolve claims made against the Company. However, the Bankruptcy Code provides an automatic stay of the proceedings listed above, as well as other claims and actions that were or could have been brought prior to the filing of the Chapter 11 Cases.

The Company believes there is no litigation pending that could have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on its results of operations or financial condition, other than the following:

3433

gathering fees under the Gathering Agreement as of that date, and for specific performance of the Gathering Agreement. On May 6, 2020, the Company terminated the Gathering Agreement in its entirety on the basis that, among other things, SCM failed to timely build and properly equip a crude pipeline gathering system by the date specified in the Gathering Agreement. In connection with the termination of the Gathering Agreement, the Company declared force majeure on May 6, 2020 and suspended deliveries of crude oil under ~~that certain Firm Sales Contract dated March 11, 2019, by and between~~ the ~~Company and ARM (the “~~Firm Sales Contract”). The Company also demanded adequate assurances from ARM under the Firm Sales Contract. When ARM failed to post adequate assurances, the Company subsequently terminated the Firm Sales Contract on May 8, 2020. SCM and ARM argued that, among other things, the Company wrongfully terminated (i) the Gathering Agreement based on the Company’s claim that SCM failed to timely build and properly equip a crude pipeline gathering system and (ii) the firm sales agreement based on the Company’s claim that ARM failed to provide adequate assurance of performance.

On May 13, 2020, SCM filed a verified application for a temporary restraining order and temporary injunction. That same day, the court entered a temporary restraining order, enjoining the Company from: (i) executing, negotiating, promising, pledging, encumbering, or otherwise burdening, conveying, or transferring SCM’s gathering rights under the Gathering Agreement with respect to certain dedicated areas; (ii) marketing or soliciting bids, tenders, or proposals for the gathering rights under the Gathering Agreement with respect to certain dedicated areas, and (iii) in any way altering, impairing, or infringing the parties’ rights under the Gathering Agreement. The court also ordered that SCM post a bond for the temporary restraining order in the amount of $50,000, and set the temporary injunction hearing for May 26, 2020.

On May 22, 2020, the Company filed a response arguing that the Company had properly exercised its right to terminate the Gathering Agreement and that SCM had failed to meet the standard for injunctive relief. The Company also filed an answer and counterclaim seeking a declaratory judgment that the Gathering Agreement and Firm Sales Contract have been properly terminated and are of no force and effect, and for damages.

On May 26, 2020, the court held a hearing on SCM’s request for temporary injunctive relief. By order dated May 28, 2020, the court denied SCM’s request for temporary injunctive relief, finding that SCM had failed to demonstrate the lack of an adequate remedy at law. On June 9, 2020, SCM filed a motion to reconsider their application for a temporary injunction. On June 10, 2020, the Company filed its response to SCM’s motion to reconsider, arguing that reconsideration is not warranted, and that SCM continues to fail to demonstrate that it lacks an adequate remedy at law. The court set a hearing on SCM’s motion to reconsider for June 22, 2020, which was subsequently rescheduled for June 29, 2020; however, prior to such hearing, the Company removed the case to the bankruptcy court in connection with the filing of the Chapter 11 Cases. The Company has filed two motions for summary judgment, one seeking a declaration that the Gathering Agreement was properly terminated by Lilis and one seeking summary judgment that the Firm Sales Contract was properly terminated by Lilis. AARM ~~hearing~~and SCM filed responses to ~~consider~~those motions for summary judgment on August 4, 2020. A hearing on the ~~two~~Debtors’ motions isfor ~~scheduled~~summary ~~for~~judgment ~~August~~occurred 18on October 5, 2020. The Bankruptcy Court denied the Company’s motion for summary judgment that the Firm Sales Contract was properly terminated by Lilis; however, the Company plans to continue defending its termination of the Firm Sales Contract. The Bankruptcy Court has not yet issued a decision on the motion for summary judgment that the Gathering Agreement was properly terminated by Lilis.

Liens

As of the most recent date available, statutory mechanic's and materialman’s liens which remain unpaid in the amount of $13.37 million have been filed against the related assets.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report. The following discussion includes forward-looking statements, including, without limitation, statements relating to our plans, strategies, objectives, expectations, intentions and resources. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in these forward-looking statements as a result of many factors, including those discussed under “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.

Overview

We are a Permian Basin focused company engaged in the exploration, production, development, and acquisition of oil, natural gas, and NGLs, with all of our properties and operations in the Delaware Basin. Our focus is on the production of “Liquids”. In each of the past two years, over 90% of our revenues have been generated from the sale of Liquids. We have a largely contiguous acreage position with significant stacked-pay potential, which we believe includes at least five to seven productive zones and more than 1,000 future drilling locations.

Our revenue, profitability, and cash flows depend on many factors which are beyond our control, including oil and gas prices, economic, political and regulatory developments, the financial condition of our vendors and customers, competition from other sources of energy, and the other items discussed under the caption “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2019. Oil and gas prices historically have been volatile and may fluctuate widely in the future.

Oil prices declined sharply during the first half of 2020, dropping below $21.00 per Bbl in March 2020 and further dropping below negative $37.00 per Bbl in April 2020. This dramatic decline in pricing was primarily in response to the economic effects of the coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic on the demand for oil and natural gas and the increased production by members of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries and other oil-producing nations, including Russia. Oil prices began to partially recover in the latter half of the second quarter from recent historical lows and have remained stable through the third quarter of 2020. Lower oil, NGL and natural gas prices may not only decrease our revenues on a per unit basis, but may also reduce the amount of oil and natural gas that we can produce economically and therefore potentially lower our oil and gas reserve quantities. Substantial and extended declines in oil, NGL and natural gas prices have resulted, and may result, in impairments of our proved oil and gas properties or undeveloped acreage (such as the impairments discussed below under “Results of Operations”) and may materially and adversely affect our future business, financial condition, cash flows, results of operations, liquidity, ability to finance planned capital expenditures or ability to emerge from bankruptcy (as discussed below under “Recent Developments”).

In order to improve our liquidity, leverage position and current ratio to meet the financial covenants under the Revolving Credit Agreement, our board of directors formed a Special Committee in November 2019 which was tasked with reviewing and evaluating strategic alternatives that could enhance the value of the Company, including alternatives that could enable us to access further sources of liquidity through financing alternatives or deleveraging transactions. The Special Committee hired financial and legal advisors to advise the committee on these matters. In the months leading to the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases, the Company, with the assistance of its advisors and spearheaded by the Special Committee, ran an extensive marketing and sale process and explored various strategic alternatives. On June 16, 2020, our board of directors revised the original directive and authority of the Special Committee to include evaluation of restructuring transactions. On June 28, 2020, following recommendation by the Special Committee, our board of directors approved the terms of the RSA (as defined below) and the filing of bankruptcy petitions by the Debtors (as defined below).

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2020, we had $8874.49 million of indebtedness outstanding under our Revolving Credit ~~Agreement~~Facility (as defined below), after giving effect to the roll-up of $15 million into the DIP Facility. Pursuant to the Forbearance Agreement (as defined below), the administrative agent and requisite lenders under our Revolving Credit Agreement agreed to refrain from exercising certain of their rights and remedies under the Revolving Credit Agreement as a result of certain specified defaults and events of default, including the Company’s failure to make the borrowing base deficiency on or before June 5, 2020, until June 26, 2020. The Company did not make the payment.

Recent Developments

Voluntary Petitions under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code

States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division (the “Bankruptcy Court”) commencing cases for relief under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code (the “Chapter 11 Cases”). The Chapter 11 Cases are being jointly administered under the caption In re Lilis Energy, Inc., et al., Case No. 20-33274. We are currently operating our business as “debtors-in-possession” under the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court, in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code.

On August 17, 2020, the Company announced that Värde had declined to pursue the Värde Equity Investment to sponsor a Chapter 11 plan of reorganization. Immediately thereafter, the Company and the other Debtors began solely pursuing the Sales Process. In connection with Värde’s election to not pursue the Värde Equity Investment, the Debtors, the Consenting RBL Lenders and Värde entered into that certain Mutual Termination of the RSA, dated August 21, 2020 (the “Mutual Termination”). Pursuant to the RSA and the Mutual Termination, certain provisions of the RSA survive the Mutual Termination, including Sections 7.01, 13.05, 15.01 (solely to the extent described by Section 15.01) and 16.22 thereof. In particular, Section 13.05 of the Restructuring Support Agreement provides for certain commitments and obligations related to the Sales Process that will remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the Mutual Termination.

On September 3, 2020 and October 13, 2020, respectively, the Debtors filed a joint liquidating Chapter 11 plan (as amended from time to time, the “Plan”) and a first amended Plan with the Bankruptcy Court in connection with their pursuit of the Sales Process. On October 14, the Bankruptcy Court approved the Debtors’ disclosure statement with respect to the Plan (the “Disclosure Statement”), which authorized the Debtors to commence votes to accept or reject the Plan. On October 16, the Debtors completed such solicitation. On October 16, 2020, the Debtors received an initial round of bids from third parties interested in acquiring substantially all of the Debtors’ assets in connection with the Sales Process. An auction in connection with the Sales Process was held on November 5, 2020, and a hearing before the Bankruptcy Court is scheduled for November 9, 2020, to consider approval of the winning bid(s) from the auction.

On October 12, 2020, the Settlement Parties reached an agreement on the Global Settlement, which resolves various actual and potential disputes between the Settlement Parties. On October 12, 2020, the Debtors filed the Settlement Motion seeking approval of certain aspects of the Global Settlement. On October 22, 2020, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order approving the Settlement Motion. Certain other aspects of the Global Settlement are being implemented through the Plan.

There can be no assurance that the Debtors will confirm the Plan with the Bankruptcy Court and consummate a sale of substantially all of their assets pursuant to the Sales Process or complete an alternative Chapter 11 plan. For the duration of our Chapter 11 Cases, our operations and our ability to develop and execute a business plan are subject to risks and uncertainties associated with bankruptcy.

•Upon ~~each~~the ~~lender~~interim ~~under~~approval of the ~~Revolving~~Bankruptcy Court, the Debtors, as borrower and guarantors, the Consenting RBL Lenders (in that capacity, “DIP Lenders”) and the Administrative Agent entered into a the DIP Credit Agreement, ~~that~~under iswhich ~~unaffiliated~~the ~~with~~DIP ~~Värde~~Lenders provide the DIP Facility providing for an aggregate principal amount of (~~each~~i) $15.0 million of new money revolving commitments, of which up to $5.0 million was available upon entry of the interim order, with the remainder available upon entry of the final order, plus (ii) a “tranche of roll-up term loans to refinance $15.0 million of the outstanding loans under the Revolving Credit Facility, including $1.5 million pre-petition bridge loans that the Non-Affiliate RBL ~~Lender”)~~Lenders ~~will~~advanced ~~receive~~to ~~its~~the ~~pro~~Company ~~rata~~on ~~share~~June 17, 2020, of ~~(i)~~which $91.25 million inof ~~cash~~roll-up ~~plus~~term ~~all~~loans ~~accrued~~were incurred upon entry of an interim order, and ~~unpaid~~the ~~interest~~remaining as$13.5 million incurred upon entry of the ~~Petition~~final ~~Date~~order.

On August 21, 2020, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order granting final approval of the DIP Facility, thereby permitting the Company to borrow an additional $10.0 million). Also on August 21, ~~and~~2020, ~~(ii)~~the ~~participations~~Company used $13.5 million in roll-up term loans under the DIP Facility to refinance $5513.5 million of ~~new~~the ~~loans~~outstanding loan under the ~~Exit~~Revolving Credit Facility.

• the treatment of allowed general unsecured claims will be determined no later than August 18, 2020, which treatment must be acceptable to Värde in consultation with the Administrative Agent, and as a condition to the effectiveness of the Plan (subject to certain exceptions provided in the RSA), the allowed general unsecured claims and allowed priority, other secured, and priority tax claims, other than claims held by Värde and its affiliates, must not exceed a total amount to be acceptable to Värde upon receipt of reasonably acceptable diligence at the time of signing the equity commitment letter providing for the Värde Equity Investment; and

• each outstanding share of the Company’s common stock will be canceled for no consideration.

The Company believes it is unlikely that the holders of shares of its common stock will receive any consideration for their shares under any plan approved by the Bankruptcy Court, irrespective of whether such plan contemplates terms consistent with or similar to those agreed upon in the RSA.

The Plan contemplated in the RSA is contingent upon, among other things, Värde’s election in its sole discretion, on or before August 18, 2020, to provide (i) an agreed commitment (which, if elected, will be funded on the effective date of the Plan) to buy the common stock of the reorganized Lilis for $55.0 million in cash less any funding provided by Värde under the Replacement DIP Facility (but excluding any amount of interest or fees paid-in-kind and capitalized thereunder), and (ii) certain Värde funds to provide for a Replacement DIP Facility.

The Consenting RBL Lenders and Värde have the right to terminate the RSA, and their support for the restructuring contemplated by the RSA (the “Restructuring”), for customary reasons, including, among others, the failure to timely achieve any of the milestones for the progress of the Chapter 11 Cases that are in the RSA, which include the dates by which the Debtors are required to, among other things, obtain certain court orders and consummate the Restructuring.

There can be no assurance that the Debtors will confirm and consummate the Plan as contemplated by the RSA or complete an alternative plan of reorganization. For the duration of our Chapter 11 Cases, our operations and our ability to develop and execute a business plan are subject to risks and uncertainties associated with bankruptcy.

Initial DIP Facility, Replacement DIP Facility and Exit Facility.

The RSA contemplates that, upon the interim approval of the Bankruptcy Court, the Debtors, as borrower and guarantors, the Consenting RBL Lenders (in that capacity, “Initial DIP Lenders”) and the Administrative Agent would enter into a Senior Secured Super-Priority Debtor-in-Possession Credit Agreement (the “Initial DIP Credit Agreement”), under which the Initial DIP Lenders would provide a super-priority senior secured debtor-in-possession credit facility providing for an aggregate principal amount of (i) $15.0 million of new money revolving commitments, of which up to $5.0 million would be available on an interim basis, with the remainder available on a final basis, plus (ii) a tranche roll-up term loans to refinance $15.0 million of the outstanding loans under the Revolving Credit Facility, including $1.5 million pre-petition bridge loans that the Non-Affiliate RBL Lenders advanced to the Company on June 17, 2020, of which $1.5 million of roll-up term loans would be incurred upon entry of an interim order, with the remaining $13.5 million to be incurred upon entry of a final order. On June 29, 2020, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order (the “Interim DIP Order”) granting interim approval of the Initial DIP Facility, thereby permitting the Company to incur up to $5.0 million new money loans on an interim basis. The Initial DIP Credit Agreement was entered into on June 30, 2020. A final hearing on the Initial DIP Facility and Initial DIP Credit Agreement is scheduled for August 18, 2020.

The RSA further contemplates that Värde may elect, in its sole discretion and on or prior to August 18, 2020, to provide the Debtors with a Replacement DIP Facility or the Värde Equity Investment or both. Among other things, Värde’s notification to the Administrative Agent or Debtors of its intention not to provide the Replacement DIP Facility or the Värde Equity Investment will constitute a termination event for the RSA. If Värde elects to provide a Replacement DIP Facility, the RSA contemplates that the Replacement DIP Facility will consist of a senior secured super-priority debtor-in-possession term loan facility providing for $20 million new money loans. The proceeds of the Replacement DIP Facility will be used to refinance in full the outstanding obligations under the Initial DIP Facility, including accrued and unpaid interest and the fees and expenses of the DIP Lenders, and pay fees, expenses and other expenditures of the Debtors during the Chapter 11 Cases. Upon the Debtors’ emergence from the Chapter 11 Cases and to the extent any claims under the Replacement DIP Facility have not otherwise been repaid, each holder of an allowed claim under the Replacement DIP Facility will receive its pro rata share of a certain percentage of the new common stock of the reorganized Lilis (subject to dilution from the Värde Equity Investment, if applicable) such that Värde and its affiliates will collectively own 100% of the outstanding common stock of the reorganized Lilis on account of its claims under the Revolving Credit Facility and the Replacement DIP Facility. In addition, Värde may elect, in its sole discretion and on or prior to August 18, 2020, to purchase, upon the Debtors’ emergence from the Chapter 11 Cases, 100% of the common stock of the reorganized Lilis in exchange for $55.0 million in cash (less any funding provided by Värde pursuant to the Replacement DIP Facility (but excluding any amount of interest or fees paid-in-kind and capitalized thereunder)) (the “Värde Equity Investment”). The proceeds of the Värde Equity Investment will be used to repay a portion of the claims of the Non-Affiliate RBL Lenders under the Revolving Credit Facility on the effective date, to fund other distributions under the Plan, and to fund the working capital of the reorganized Debtors.

Acceleration of Our Existing Debt and Automatic Stay Due to Chapter 11 Filing

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2020, after giving effect to the roll-up of $15 million into the DIP Facility, we had $8874.49 million of indebtedness outstanding under our Revolving Credit Agreement including $25.7 million of such principal held by an affiliate of Värde which was subordinated to the indebtedness of the other RBL Lenders under the Revolving Credit Agreement.

On June 5, 2020, the Debtors, the Administrative Agent and certain lenders entered into a Limited Forbearance Agreement to the Revolving Credit Agreement (the “Forbearance Agreement”). Pursuant to the Forbearance Agreement, the Administrative Agent and the Majority Lenders agreed to refrain from exercising certain of their rights and remedies under the Revolving Credit Agreement and related documents arising solely as a result of the occurrence or continuance of certain specified defaults and events of default under the Revolving Credit Agreement (the “Specified Defaults”) during the Forbearance Period (as defined below). The Specified Defaults include the Company’s failure to make the borrowing base deficiency payment due June 5, 2020, deliver certain financial statements when due, failure to comply with requirements related to the status of trade payables and related liens and failure to maintain the leverage ratio and asset coverage ratio required by the Revolving Credit Agreement as of the fiscal quarter ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020. The “Forbearance Period” commenced on the date of the Forbearance Agreement and expired at 6:00 p.m., Central time, on June 26, 2020.

The Forbearance Agreement permitted the lenders under the Revolving Credit Agreement, or the RBL Lenders, in their capacity as counterparties to the Company’s commodity swap agreements to unwind and liquidate such swap arrangements during the Forbearance Period and to apply any net proceeds to pay down the outstanding obligations under the Revolving Credit Agreement. The swap positions of such lenders were liquidated on June 9, 2020 for net proceeds of approximately $9.3 million, which was applied to reduce the outstanding obligations of the Company under the Revolving Credit Agreement. On June 17, 2020, certain of the RBL Lenders permitted the Company to borrow $1.5 million under the Revolving Credit Agreement. As of the filing of the Chapter 11 Cases, the remaining outstanding principal on our Revolving Credit Agreement was $89.9 million, including $25.7 million of such principal held by an affiliate of Värde which was subordinated to the indebtedness of the other RBL Lenders under the Revolving Credit Agreement.

Our remaining derivative contracts were with counterparties that were not our RBL Lenders are governed by master agreements which generally specify that a default under any of our indebtedness as well as any bankruptcy filing is an event of default which may result in early termination of the derivative contracts. As a result of our debt defaults and our bankruptcy petition, we are currently in default under these remaining derivative contracts. In July, the remaining derivative contracts were terminated in conjunction with our bankruptcy proceedings. Furthermore, since we are in default on our indebtedness and have a bankruptcy filing, we will no longer be ~~able to represent that we comply with the credit default or bankruptcy covenants under our derivative master agreements and thus may not be able to enter into new hedging transactions.~~

~~Subject~~able to ~~certain~~represent ~~exceptions,~~that ~~under~~we ~~the~~comply ~~Bankruptcy~~with ~~Code,~~ the ~~filing~~credit ofdefault ~~the~~or bankruptcy ~~petitions~~covenants onunder ~~the~~our ~~Petition~~derivative ~~Date~~master ~~automatically~~agreements ~~enjoined,~~and orthus ~~stayed,~~may ~~the~~not ~~continuation~~be ofable ~~most judicial or administrative proceedings or the filing of other actions against the Debtors or their property~~ to ~~recover,~~enter ~~collect~~into ornew ~~secure~~hedging ~~a claim arising prior to the Petition Date~~transactions. ~~Creditors are stayed from taking any actions against the Debtors as a result of debt defaults, subject to certain limited exceptions permitted by the Bankruptcy Code.~~

The commencement of a voluntary proceeding in bankruptcy constitutes an immediate event of default under the Revolving Credit Agreement, resulting in the automatic and immediate acceleration of all of the Company’s outstanding debt. The Company has classified its outstanding balance under the Revolving Credit Agreement as liabilities subject to compromise on its condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2020. Subject to certain exceptions, under the Bankruptcy Code, the filing of the bankruptcy petitions on the Petition Date automatically enjoined, or stayed, the continuation of most judicial or administrative proceedings or the filing of other actions against the Debtors or their property to recover, collect or secure a claim arising prior to the Petition Date. Creditors are stayed from taking any actions against the Debtors as a result of debt defaults, subject to certain limited exceptions permitted by the Bankruptcy Code.

Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

We have experienced losses and working capital deficiencies, and at times in the past, negative cash flows from operations. Additionally, our liquidity and operating forecasts have been negatively impacted by the recent decrease in commodity prices and resulting temporary shut-in of wells, which has negatively impacted our ability to comply with debt covenants under our Revolving Credit Agreement. Commodity price volatility, as well as concerns about the COVID-19 pandemic, which has significantly decreased worldwide demand for oil and natural gas. These factors have restricted our access to liquidity and lead the company to seek relief through filing our Chapter 11 cases. As a result, the Company has concluded these matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a twelve-month period following the date of issuance of these consolidated financial statements.

We face uncertainty regarding the adequacy of our liquidity and capital resources and have extremely limited access to additional financing. The Interim DIP Order entered by the Bankruptcy Court on June 29, 2020 approved the ~~Initial~~ DIP Facility on an interim basis, thereby allowing us to borrow up to $5.0 million under the ~~Initial~~ DIP Facility, which we borrowed on June 30, 2020. ~~Our~~On ~~ability~~August to21, ~~borrow~~2020, we borrowed the additional $10.0 million new money loans under the ~~Initial~~ DIP Facility isfollowing ~~contingent on the satisfaction of the conditions specified in the Initial DIP Credit Agreement, including~~ receipt of a final order by the Bankruptcy Court approving the ~~Initial~~ DIP Facility and the ~~Initial~~ DIP Credit Agreement. In addition to the cash requirement necessary to fund ongoing operations, we have incurred significant professional fees and other costs in connection with preparation for the Chapter 11 Cases and expect that we will continue to incur significant professional fees, costs and other expenses throughout our Chapter 11 Cases.

~~As part of the Chapter 11 Cases, the Company entered into the RSA described above.~~ The Company’s operations and its ability to develop and execute its business plan are subject to a high degree of risk and uncertainty associated with the Chapter 11 Cases. The outcome of the Chapter 11 Cases is subject to a high degree of uncertainty and is dependent upon factors that are outside of the Company’s control, including actions of the Bankruptcy Court and the Company’s creditors. There can be no assurance that the Debtors will confirm the Plan with the Bankruptcy Court and consummate a sale of substantially all of their assets pursuant to the Sales Process or complete an alternative Chapter 11 plan.

2020 Operational and Financial Updates

•

Brought additional capital of $24.1 million into the Company through the sale of certain undeveloped leasehold assets in New Mexico.

• Successfully tested gas treating system on the east side gas pipeline and now in the final stages of contract negotiations for long-term pricing.

•

In response to commodity price decreases in March and April 2020, the Company elected to shut-in 31 wells during April 2020. These wells were identified as uneconomic after the significant decline in commodity prices at that time. Twenty-eight of the shut-in wells have been brought back online.

• Implemented well optimization program ~~that~~which includes: utilizing chemicals, hot oiling, and swabbing; in combination with a proper preventative maintenance program to maximize increases in daily production.

• ANegotiated ~~portion~~lower ofproduced ~~the~~water ~~Company's~~hauling ~~employees~~and ~~were~~disposal ~~placed~~rates ~~on furlough in April. As a result of continuing restricted liquidity due~~ to ~~economic~~decrease ~~impacts~~operating ~~of COVID-19, the Company laid off its furloughed employees, a 44% reduction in workforce, in June 2020 to further reduce personnel~~ costs ~~of the Company~~.

•

A portion of the Company's employees were placed on furlough in April. As a result of continued restricted liquidity due to economic impacts of COVID-19, the Company laid off its furloughed employees, a 44% reduction in workforce, in June 2020 to further reduce personnel costs of the Company.

COVID-19

In addition, in March 2020, OPEC+ countries failed to agree on production levels which has caused increased supply and led to a substantial sharp decrease in oil prices and an increasingly volatile market. The oil price and production dispute ended with an agreement among certain OPEC+ countries to cut global petroleum output but such cuts did not go far enough to offset the impact of COVID-19 pandemic on the worldwide economy reducing worldwide demand and pricing of oil. If depressed pricing continues for an extended period it may lead to i) reductions in availability under any reserve-based lending arrangements we may enter into, ii) reductions in reserves, and (iii) additional impairment of proved and unproved oil and gas properties.

The substantial decrease and continued suppression in oil prices during 2020 has resulted in a full-cost ceiling impairment of $3262.72 million and $94.9 million, during the quarter ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020 and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively.

During April 2020 the Company elected to shut-in 12 wells which were identified as uneconomic as a result of the continued decline in commodity prices in 2020 and 19 additional wells were identified for short term shut-in through May and June. In late May, 16 of the shut-in wells were back on production. Another 12 shut-in wells were back on production in early June. After initially furloughing a portion of its employees, and as a result of continuing restricted liquidity further exacerbated by economic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company laid off 44% of its remaining workforce in June 2020 to further reduce general and administrative costs of the Company.

The economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and resulting reduction in oil prices is expected to continue to impact the Company for an indeterminate period.

Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act

On March 27, 2020, President Trump signed into law the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”). The CARES Act, among other things, includes provisions relating to refundable payroll tax credits, deferment of employer side social security payments, net operating loss carryback periods, alternative minimum tax credit refunds, modifications to the net interest deduction limitations, increased limitations on qualified charitable contributions, and technical corrections to tax depreciation methods for qualified improvement property.

The CARES Act has not had a significant impact on our financial condition, results of operations, or liquidity.

Market Conditions and Commodity Pricing

Our financial results depend on many factors, including the price of oil, natural gas and NGLs and our ability to market our production on economically attractive terms. We generate the majority of our revenues from sales of Liquids and, to a lesser extent, sales of natural gas. The price of these products are critical factors to our success and volatility in these prices could impact our results of operations. In addition, our business requires substantial capital to acquire properties and develop our non-producing properties. The price of oil, natural gas and NGLs have fallen significantly since the beginning of 2020, due in part to ~~failed~~the ~~OPEC~~impact ~~negotiations~~of ~~and to concerns about~~ the COVID-19 pandemic, which has significantly decreased worldwide demand for oil and natural gas. This significant decline and any further declines in the price of oil, natural gas and NGLs have reduced ~~our revenues resulting in lower cash inflow~~ and ~~impairment~~may oncontinue ~~our proved oil and gas properties, which have made it more difficult for us~~ to ~~pursue~~reduce our ~~plans~~revenues toresulting ~~acquire new properties and develop our existing properties. Such declines~~ in ~~oil,~~lower ~~natural~~cash ~~gas, and NGL prices also adversely affect our ability to obtain additional funding on favorable terms.~~

41Realized commodity prices were adversely impacted by COVID-19 which resulted in a decrease of our realized prices for oil and NGL for the quarter, but was partially offset by an increase in our realized price on natural gas, resulting in a decrease of 25% in realized price per BOE for the three months ended September 30, 2020 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2019. Total revenue decreased $1.6 million to $10.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020, as compared to $11.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019, representing an 14% decrease. Total sales volumes increased 14% to 406,262 BOE during the three months ended September 30, 2020, compared to 355,501 BOE for the 2019 quarter, an increase of 50,761 BOE. Higher total sales volume for the three months ended September 30, 2020 was primarily the result of the shut-in of certain wells during the three months ended September 30, 2019 for facilities upgrades as well as sales from 3.0 gross (2.5 net) wells placed on production after September 30, 2019.

Realized commodity prices were adversely impacted by COVID-19 which resulted in a decrease of our realized prices for the quarter, and was partially offset by recognition of deferred revenue, resulting in a decrease of 37% in realized price per BOE for the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019. Total revenue decreased $16.0 million to $5.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to $21.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, representing an 74% decrease. Oil revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2020 includes recognition of $2.2 million of deferred revenue upon the termination of the ARM sales agreement. Total sales volumes decreased 59% to 238,726 BOE during the three months ended June 30, 2020, compared to 577,063 BOE for the 2019 quarter, a decrease of 338,337 BOE. Lower total sales volumes for the three months ended June 30, 2020 was primarily the result of the shut-in of 31 of our wells in response to the sharp decline in commodity prices in March and April 2020. The decrease was partially offset by sales from 3.0 gross (2.5 net) wells placed on production after June 30, 2019. 40

42Realized commodity prices were adversely impacted by COVID-19, which resulted in a decrease of our realized prices and was partially offset by recognition of deferred revenue, resulting in a decrease of 19% in realized price per BOE for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2019. Total revenue decreased $22.5 million to $28.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, as compared to $50.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, representing a 44% decrease. Oil revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 includes recognition of $2.2 million of deferred revenue upon the termination of the ARM sales agreement. Total sales volume decreased 31% to 1,012,622 BOE during the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to 1,477,785 BOE for the comparable 2019 period, a decrease of 465,163 BOE. The total sales volume decrease was primarily the result of our gas purchaser's shut down of its system for seven days of the first quarter and the April shut-in of 31 of our wells in response to the sharp decline in commodity prices in March and April 2020. The decrease was partially offset by sales from 3.0 gross (2.5 net) wells placed on production after September 30, 2019.

Realized commodity prices were adversely impacted by COVID-19 which resulted in a decrease of our realized prices and was partially offset by recognition of deferred revenue, resulting in a decrease of 14% in realized price per BOE for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019. Total revenue decreased $20.9 million to $18.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to $39.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, representing a 53% decrease.

Production Costs

Production costs decreased by $12.46 million to $21.46 million for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020, as a result of ~~shut-in of certain wells as well as~~ cost-cutting measures taken in the current year partially offset by the addition of 3.0 gross (2.5 net) producing wells since ~~June~~September 30, 2019. Our production costs on a per BOE basis ~~increased~~decreased by $37.4793, or 5266%, to $104.1601 for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020, as compared to $611.6994 per BOE for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2019. ~~Our production costs include fixed and variable costs, so in periods of lower production volumes, our per BOE production cost is expected to be higher.~~ The ~~increase~~decrease in production costs per BOE was primarily the result of ~~our~~cost-cutting ~~lower~~measures ~~production~~in ~~volumes. Production~~the ~~costs~~2020 ~~were~~period ~~also higher due to increased water disposal costs~~ as aopposed ~~result of a suspension of access~~ to ~~water~~higher ~~gathering~~well treatment and ~~disposal~~workover ~~system~~costs in ~~June~~the 2019 period.

Gathering, Processing and Transportation

Gathering, processing and transportation costs decreased $0.91 million to $0.48 million for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020, compared to $10.29 million for the 2019 quarter. This cost decrease was primarily the result of lower sales volumes of natural gas ~~and NGLs~~. The cost on a per BOE basis decreased from $2.1465 for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2019, to $12.5203 for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020. The decrease was primarily attributable to a lower proportion of natural gas and NGLs in the product mix. For the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020, natural gas and NGLs made up only 2843% of total BOE sales as compared to 3847% of total BOE sales for the 2019 quarter.

Production Taxes

Production taxes decreased $1.0 million to $0.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, compared to $1.1 million for the same period in 2019. The decrease is consistent with the decrease in revenue for the current year quarter primarily due to decreased volumes.

General and Administrative Expenses (“G&A”)

G&A decreased by $31.05 million to $6.3.4 million for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020, as compared to $9.4.9 million for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2019. The decrease of $31.05 million in G&A was primarily attributable to a decrease in personnel costs of $31.02 million, including directors’ fees, a decrease of $0.5 million in professional services and a decrease in share-based compensation of $20.2 million, offset by an increase of $10.69 million in ~~professional~~bad ~~services~~debt expense. All professional fees incurred ~~from~~after the filing of the Chapter 11 Cases ~~forward~~and directly related to the bankruptcy, are reported in reorganization items, net in our condensed consolidation statements of operations.

Depreciation, Depletion, Amortization and Accretion (“DD&A”)

DD&A expense was $24.53 million for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020, compared to $95.24 million for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2019; resulting in a decrease of $61.72 million. Our DD&A rate decreased by 3531% to $10.2847 per BOE for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020 from $15.9225 per BOE for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2019. The rate decrease was primarily the result of lower oil and gas property net book values remaining at ~~June~~September 30, 2020 after the $228.3 million impairment recorded in the last half of 2019 as well as impairment recorded in the second quarter 2020. To a smaller degree, DD&A expense was lower as a result of a 5914% decrease in sales volumes for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020 as compared to the 2019 quarter.

Impairment of Oil and Natural Gas Properties

The Company recorded an impairment of oil and gas properties of $3262.72 million for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020. The net book value of the Company's oil and gas properties at ~~June~~September 30, 2020 exceeded the ceiling limitation calculated as required under the full cost method of accounting. The impairment was the result of lower discounted future net cash flows as reported in our ~~June~~September 30, 2020 proved reserves report. The significant decrease in discounted future net cash flows for ~~June~~September 30, 2020 as compared to the discounted future net cash flows for ~~March~~June 3130, 2020 was primarily the result of an approximate 258% decrease in the oil and gas pricing under SEC rules used in the ~~June~~September 30, 2020 report as compared to ~~March~~June 3130, 2020, as well as changes to the capital budget in the three months ended September 30, 2020. Proved reserves volumes decreased 749%.

Production Costs

Production costs decreased by $14.51 million to $78.18 million for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020, as a result of decreased production as well as cost-cutting measures taken in the current year offset by the addition of 3.0 gross (2.5 net) producing wells since ~~June~~September 30, 2019.

periods of lower production volumes, our per BOE cost is expected to be higher. The increase in production costs per BOE was primarily the result of higher compression, chemicals, and repair and maintenance costs. Production costs were also higher due to increased water disposal costs as a result of a suspension of access to water gathering and disposal system in June.

Gathering, Processing and Transportation

Gathering, processing and transportation costs decreased $1.78 million to $01.75 million for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020, compared to $23.4 million for the 2019 period. This cost decrease was primarily the result of lower sales volumes of natural gas and NGLs. The cost on a per BOE basis decreased from $2.1527 for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2019, to $1.1450 for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020. The decrease was primarily attributable to a lower proportion of natural gas and NGLs in the product mix. For the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020, natural gas and NGLs made up only 2230% of total BOE sales as compared to 4042% of total BOE sales for the 2019 period.

Production Taxes

Production taxes decreased $1.23 million to $01.83 million for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020, compared to $2.06 million for the same period in 2019. The decrease is consistent with the decrease in revenue for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020. On a per BOE basis, production taxes decreased $0.5250 to $1.2824 for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020, when compared to $1.8074 for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2019, primarily attributed to anlower ~~increase~~realized ofprices ~~New~~and, ~~Mexico~~to ~~production~~a aslesser ~~percentage~~degree, ofincrease ~~total~~in ~~production~~current year oil sales volume, ~~where~~which ~~production~~is ~~taxes~~taxed ~~are~~at a lower rate than ~~Texas~~gas sales, as a percentage of total sales volume.

General and Administrative Expenses

The decrease of $68.94 million in G&A was primarily attributable to a decrease in stock-based compensation of $45.80 million, a decrease in personnel costs of $34.07 million including severance costs and directors’ fees, offset by a $1.10 million increase in bad debt expense and $0.5 million increase in professional services. All professional fees incurred ~~from~~after the filing of the Chapter 11 Cases ~~forward~~and directly related to the bankruptcy, are reported in reorganization items, net in our condensed consolidation statements of operations.

Depreciation, Depletion, Amortization and Accretion

DD&A expense was $510.70 million for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020, compared to $1722.38 million for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2019; resulting in a decrease of $1112.68 million. Our DD&A rate decreased by 3936% to $9.4787 per BOE for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020 from $15.4540 per BOE for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2019. The rate decrease was primarily the result of lower oil and gas property net book values remaining at ~~June~~September 30, 2020 after the $228.3 million impairment recorded in the last half of 2019 as well as the impairment recorded in the second quarter of 2020. To a smaller degree, DD&A expense was lower as a result of a 4631% decrease in sales volumes for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020 as compared to the 2019 period.

Impairment of Oil and Natural Gas Properties

The Company recorded an impairment of oil and gas properties of $3294.79 million for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020. The net book value of the Company's oil and gas properties at ~~June~~September 30, 2020 exceeded the ceiling limitation calculated as required under the full cost method of accounting.

Change in Fair Value of Financial Instruments

For the three months ended June 30, 2020, we recognized a gain of $20.6 million on the change in fair value of the embedded derivative associated with the ARM sales agreement as result of the cancelation of agreement on May 8, 2020. As of December 31, 2019, we determined the agreement no longer met the criteria for the “normal purchase normal sales” exception under ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging”, as the Company was not meeting the minimum quantities deliverable under the contract and the net settlement criteria being met (see Note 19 - Commitments and Contingencies to our condensed consolidated financial statements). See Note 9 - Derivatives to our condensed consolidated financial statements for information regarding the recognition of the net settlement mechanism as an embedded derivative.

Interest Expense

Interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2020 was $1.6 million compared to $1.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. For the three months ended June 30, 2020, interest expense included $1.3 million interest expense on principal balances outstanding under the Revolving Credit Agreement, $0.2 million from financing arrangements and $0.2 million for amortization debt issuance costs. For the three months ended June 30, 2019, we incurred interest expense of $1.8 million, which included $1.7 million for interest expense on principal balances outstanding under the Revolving Credit Agreement and $0.1 million for amortization of debt issuance costs.

Reorganization Items, net

ASC 852 requires that the financial statements, for periods subsequent to the Chapter 11 filing, distinguish transactions and events that are directly associated with the reorganization from the ongoing operations of the business. Accordingly, certain expenses, gains and losses that are realized or incurred in the bankruptcy proceedings are recorded in “reorganization items, net” on our statements of operations.

Gain (Loss) on Early Extinguishment of Debt

Gain (Loss) from Commodity Derivatives, net

~~Valuation~~During ~~of our commodity derivatives increased by $23.8 million during~~ the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020, resulting primarily from changes in underlying commodity prices as compared to the hedged prices within derivative instruments and the monthly settlement of those instruments. Additionally, during the six months ended June 30, 2020, our gain from commodity derivatives consisted primarily of net gains of $1312.87 million from settled positions and $2.3.6 million from mark-to-market adjustments on unsettled positions. During June and July of 2020 all of our commodity derivative contracts were terminated and liquidated resulting in a gain of $7.9 million. During the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2019, our net loss from commodity derivatives consisted primarily of net losses of $3.2 million from settled positions and $4.5 million from mark-to-market adjustments on unsettled positions.

Change in Fair Value of Financial Instruments

For the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020, we recognized a gain of $3.2 million on the change in fair value of the embedded derivative associated with the ARM sales agreement as result of the cancelation of agreement on May 8, 2020. As of December 31, 2019, we determined the agreement no longer met the criteria for the “normal purchase normal sales” exception under ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging”, as the Company was not meeting the minimum quantities deliverable under the contract and the net settlement criteria being met (see Note 19 - Commitments and Contingencies to our condensed consolidated financial statements). See Note 9 - Derivatives to our condensed consolidated financial statements for information regarding the recognition of the net settlement mechanism as an embedded derivative.

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2019, the change in fair value of financial instruments is attributable to embedded derivatives associated with the conversion feature of the Second Lien Term Loan (as defined in Note 11 - Indebtedness to our condensed consolidated financial statements). Prior to extinguishment of the Second Lien Term Loan in March 2019, changes in our stock price directly affected the fair value of the embedded derivative. During the period from January 1, 2019 to March 5, 2019 (the date of extinguishment), we recognized a loss of $0.3 million on the embedded derivative.

Interest Expense

Interest expense for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020 was $57.46 million compared to $68.79 million for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2019. For the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020, interest expense included $24.80 million interest expense on principal balances outstanding under the Revolving Credit Agreement, $12.85 million from financing arrangements and $0.9 million for amortization debt issuance costs including $0.5 million to recognize excess deferred issuance costs resulting from the borrowing base reduction under our Revolving Credit Agreement. For the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2019, we incurred interest expense of $68.79 million, which included $34.18 million for interest expense on principal balances outstanding under the Revolving Credit Agreement, $1.6 million for PIK interest and $1.7 million related to amortization of debt discount on our Second Lien Term Loan and $0.36 for amortization of debt issuance costs.

Reorganization Items, net

ASC 852 requires that the financial statements, for periods subsequent to the Chapter 11 filing, distinguish transactions and events that are directly associated with the reorganization from the ongoing operations of the business. Accordingly, certain expenses, gains and losses that are realized or incurred in the bankruptcy proceedings are recorded in “reorganization items, net” on our statements of operations. Reorganization items, net for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020 is ~~mainly~~ made up of $9.0 million in professional fees and legal services, the write off of unamortized deferred financing costs of $2.0 million, and $0.7 million in contract termination costs.

Going Concern and Liquidity

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2020, we had $8874.49 million of indebtedness outstanding under our Revolving Credit Agreement (as defined in Note 11 - Indebtedness to our condensed consolidated financial statements), after giving effect to the roll-up of $15 million into the DIP Facility.

On June 5, 2020, the Company, the Guarantors, the Administrative Agent and certain lenders entered into the Forbearance Agreement, under which the Administrative Agent and the Majority Lenders agreed to refrain from exercising certain of their rights and remedies under the Revolving Credit Agreement and related documents arising solely as a result of the occurrence or continuance of the Specified Defaults during the Forbearance Period including, among other things, our failure to make the borrowing base deficiency payment due June 5, 2020. The “Forbearance Period” commenced on the date of the Forbearance Agreement and expired on June 26, 2020. The Company did not make the borrowing base deficiency payment.

The Forbearance Agreement permitted the lenders under the Revolving Credit Agreement, or the RBL Lenders, in their capacity as counterparties to the Company’s commodity swap agreements to unwind and liquidate such swap arrangements during the Forbearance Period and to apply any net proceeds to pay down the outstanding obligations under the Revolving Credit Agreement. The swap positions of such lenders were liquidated on June 9, 2020 for net proceeds of approximately $9.3 million, which was applied to reduce the outstanding obligations of the Company under the Revolving Credit Agreement. On June 17, 2020, certain of the RBL Lenders permitted the Company to borrow $1.5 million under the Revolving Credit Agreement. As of the filing of the Chapter 11 Cases, the remaining outstanding principal on our Revolving Credit Agreement was $89.9 million, including $25.7 million of such principal held by an affiliate of Värde which was subordinated to the indebtedness of the other RBL Lenders under the Revolving Credit Agreement.

On the Petition Date, the Debtors filed voluntary petitions seeking relief under the Bankruptcy Code in the Bankruptcy Court commencing cases for relief under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code. Under the Plan contemplated by the RSA, each Non-Affiliate RBL Lender will receive its pro rata share of (i) $9.2 million in cash plus all accrued and unpaid interest as of the Petition Date (estimated to be $0.7 million), and (ii) participations in $55 million of new loans under the Exit Facility. See Note 2 - Chapter 11 Filing, Liquidity and Going Concern to our condensed consolidated financial statements for a description of the terms of the Chapter 11 Cases, ~~the RSA~~ and the Plan and the impact of the Chapter 11 Cases on the outstanding debt under our Revolving Credit Agreement.

We have experienced losses and working capital deficiencies, and in the past, significant negative cash flows from operations. Additionally, our liquidity and operating forecasts have been negatively impacted by the recent decrease in commodity prices and resulting temporary shut-in of wells, which has negatively impacted our ability to comply with debt covenants under our Revolving Credit Agreement. The commodity prices have fallen significantly since the beginning of 2020, due in part to failed OPEC negotiations in the first quarter, which ultimately were resolved but prices have been slow to recover, as well as concerns about the COVID-19 pandemic, which has significantly decreased worldwide demand for oil and natural gas. Pursuant to the Forbearance Agreement, the Administrative Agent and the requisite lenders under the Revolving Credit Agreement agreed to refrain from exercising certain of their rights and remedies under the Revolving Credit Agreement and related documents during the Forbearance Period that arose solely as a result of the Company’s breach of the Leverage Ratio and Current Ratio covenants, the Company’s failure to pay remaining borrowing base deficiency and certain other defaults or events of default. As a result, the Company has concluded that management’s plans do not alleviate substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within twelve-month period following the date of issuance of these consolidated financial statements.

that management’s plans do not alleviate substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within twelve-month period following the date of issuance of these consolidated financial statements.

Fluctuations in oil and natural gas prices have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations, cash flows and quantities of oil, natural gas and NGL reserves that may be economically produced. Historically, oil and natural gas prices have been volatile, and may be subject to wide fluctuations in the future. If continued depressed prices persist, the Company will continue to experience operating losses, negative cash flows from operating activities, and negative working capital.

We face uncertainty regarding the adequacy of our liquidity and capital resources and have extremely limited access to additional financing. The Interim DIP Order entered by the Bankruptcy Court on June 29, 2020 approved the ~~Initial~~ DIP Facility on an interim basis, thereby allowing us to borrow up to $5.0 million under the ~~Initial~~ DIP Facility, which we borrowed on June 30, 2020. ~~Our~~We ~~ability~~borrowed toan ~~borrow the~~ additional $10.0 million new money loans under the ~~Initial~~ DIP Facility ~~is contingent~~ on ~~the~~August ~~satisfaction~~21, ~~of the conditions specified in the Initial DIP Credit Agreement~~2020, ~~including~~upon receipt of a final order by the Bankruptcy Court approving the ~~Initial~~ DIP Facility and the ~~Initial~~ DIP Credit Agreement. In addition to the cash requirement necessary to fund ongoing operations, we have incurred significant professional fees and other costs in connection with preparation for the Chapter 11 Cases and expect that we will continue to incur significant professional fees, costs and other expenses throughout our Chapter 11 Cases.

~~As part of the Chapter 11 Cases, the Company entered into the RSA described above.~~ The Company’s operations and its ability to develop and execute its business plan are subject to a high degree of risk and uncertainty associated with the Chapter 11 Cases. The outcome of the Chapter 11 Cases is subject to a high degree of uncertainty and is dependent upon factors that are outside of the Company’s control, including actions of the Bankruptcy Court and the Company’s creditors. There can be no assurance that the ~~Company~~Debtors will confirm ~~and~~the ~~consummate~~Plan awith ~~Plan~~the asBankruptcy ~~contemplated~~Court byand ~~the~~consummate ~~RSA~~a orsale ~~complete~~of ~~another~~substantially ~~plan~~all of ~~reorganization~~their ~~with~~assets ~~respect~~pursuant to the Sales Process or complete an alternative Chapter 11 ~~Cases~~plan.

For the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020, net cash provided by investing activities was $1312.58 million, compared to a use of $4838.37 million for the same period in 2019. The $1312.58 million in cash provided by investing activities during the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020, was primarily attributable to the following:

•

approximately $24.1 million in proceeds from the sale of approximately 1,185 undeveloped net acres in Lea County, New Mexico; partially offset by

• cash payments of approximately $1011.52 million for capital expenditures on oil and gas properties.

The $2010.49 million of net cash used in financing activities included arepayments totaling $2640.61 million ~~repayment~~ under the Revolving Credit Agreement and $630.50 million in proceeds from the ~~Initial~~ DIP Facility.

Capital Structure

Revolving Credit Agreement

The Company has entered into the Seventh Amendment through the Fourteenth Amendment to the Revolving Credit Agreement and the Forbearance Agreement, which among other things, resulted in the following (see Note 11 - Indebtedness to our condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information):

•

Reduced our borrowing base to $90.0 million;

•

Extended the date for the final borrowing base deficiency payment to June 5, 2020 and further to June 26, 2020, did not happen as a result of the Chapter 11 filing;

•

Waived compliance with the Leverage and Current Ratio covenants as of December 31, 2019 and March 31, 2020; and

•

Obtained the agreement of the Administrative Agent and the requisite lenders to refrain from exercising certain rights and remedies under the Revolving Credit Agreement arising as a result of certain defaults and events of default, including our failure to make the borrowing base deficiency payment on June 5, 2020.

As a result of the filing of the Chapter 11 Cases, all indebtedness under the Revolving Credit Agreement was automatically accelerated and became due and payable. As of ~~the~~September ~~filing~~31, ~~of the Chapter 11 Cases~~2020, the remaining outstanding principal on our Revolving Credit Agreement was $8974.9 million, including $25.7 million of such principal held by an affiliate of Värde which was subordinated to the indebtedness of the other bank lenders under the Revolving Credit Agreement.

Debtor-in-Possession Credit Agreement

On June 30, 2020, Lilis Energy, Inc., as borrower, and the other Debtors, as guarantors, entered into a Senior Secured Super-Priority Debtor-in-Possession Credit Agreement, or the DIP Credit Agreement, among the Debtors, the Non-Affiliate RBL Lenders (also referred to as the ~~Initial~~ DIP Lenders), and the Administrative Agent. Under the ~~Initial~~ DIP Facility, the ~~Initial~~ DIP Lenders agreed to provide a super-priority senior secured debtor-in-possession credit facility (also referred to as the ~~Initial~~ DIP Facility) providing for an aggregate principal amount of (i) $15.0 million of new money revolving commitments, of which up to $5.0 million became available upon entry of the Interim DIP Order, with the remainder to become available on a final basis, plus (ii) a tranche of roll-up term loans to refinance $15.0 million of the outstanding loans under the Revolving Credit Facility, including $1.5 million pre-petition bridge loans that the Non-Affiliate RBL Lenders advanced to the Company on June 17, 2020, of which $1.5 million of roll-up term loans were incurred upon entry of the Interim DIP Order, with the remaining $13.5 million to be incurred upon entry of a final order. On June 29, 2020, the Bankruptcy Court entered the Interim DIP Order granting interim approval of the ~~Initial~~ DIP Facility, thereby permitting the Debtors to incur up to $5.0 million new money loans on an interim basis. AOn ~~final~~August ~~hearing~~21, on2020, the ~~Initial~~Bankruptcy Court entered an order granting final approval of the DIP Facility, ~~and~~thereby ~~Initial~~permitting ~~DIP~~the ~~Credit~~Company ~~Agreement~~to isborrow ~~scheduled~~an ~~for~~additional $10.0 million. Also on August 1821, 2020 atthe ~~2:30~~Company pused $13.m5 million in roll-up term loans under the DIP Facility to refinance $13.5 ~~prevailing~~million ~~Central~~of ~~Time~~the outstanding loan under the Revolving Credit Facility.

50In connection with the Debtors’ transition to a sole pursuit of the Sales Process, the Debtors, the Administrative Agent and the DIP Facility Lenders amended the DIP Credit Agreement to extend certain milestones in the DIP Facility as the Debtors pivoted to the Sales Process. The proceeds of the DIP Facility are being used to pay fees, expenses and other expenditures of the Debtors set forth in rolling budgets prepared as part of the Chapter 11 Cases, which are subject to approval by the DIP Lenders.

Borrowings under the ~~Initial~~ DIP Facility mature on the earliest of (i) November 30, 2020, (ii) the effective date of an approved ~~plan~~Chapter of11 ~~reorganization~~plan and (iii) the date on which the Debtors consummate a sale of all or substantially all of their assets pursuant to Section 363 of Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise.

The ~~Initial~~ DIP Credit Agreement contains events of default customary for debtor-in-possession financings, including events related to the Chapter 11 proceedings, the occurrence of which could cause the acceleration of the Debtors’ obligation to repay borrowings outstanding under the ~~Initial~~ DIP Facility. The Debtors’ obligations under the ~~Initial~~ DIP Credit Agreement are secured by a security interest in, and lien on, substantially all present and after-acquired property (whether tangible, intangible, real, personal or mixed) of the Debtors, including a super-priority priming lien on the property of the Debtors that secure their obligations under the Revolving Credit Facility.

Related Party Transactions

Certain investment funds and entities affiliated with Värde Partners, Inc. ~~are~~were parties to the RSA. For additional information regarding the RSA, see “Overview - Voluntary Petitions under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code” above.

Under two agreements entered into with affiliates of Värde in 2019 for the sale of an overriding royalty interest to Winkler Lea Royalty L.P. ("WLR") and a non-operated working interest in newly developed assets to Winkler Lea Working Interest L.P. ("WLWI"). For the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020, WLR’s proportionate share of revenue was ~~none~~$0.2 million and $0.24 million, respectively. WLWI's net revenue (revenue less production costs) for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020 were $0.25 million and $12.61 million, respectively. Both are included in interest expense on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Common Stock

Under the Plan ~~contemplated by the RSA entered into on June 28, 2020,~~ each outstanding share of the Company’s common stock will be canceled for no consideration. The Company believes it is unlikely that the holders of shares of its common stock will receive any consideration for their shares under any plan approved by the Bankruptcy Court~~, irrespective of whether such plan contemplates terms consistent with or similar to those agreed upon in the RSA~~.

On June 30, 2020, The Company received notification dated June 29, 2020 from the NYSE American LLC (the “NYSE American”) that the Company’s common stock has been suspended from trading on the NYSE American and that the NYSE American has determined to commence proceedings to delist the Company’s common stock. The NYSE American determined that the Company was no longer suitable for listing under Section 1003(c)(iii) of the NYSE American Company Guide after the Company’s June 29, 2020 disclosure that it and certain of its subsidiaries filed voluntary petitions for relief under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division. The Company does not presently anticipate exercising its right to appeal the NYSE American’s delisting determination.

The Company’s common stock has begun to be quoted on the OTC Pink marketplace on June 30, 2020 under the symbol “LLEXQ”.

Effects of Inflation and Pricing

The oil and gas industry is very cyclical and the demand for goods and services of oil field companies, suppliers and others associated with the industry puts pressure on the economic stability and pricing structure within the industry. Typically, as prices for oil and natural gas increase, so do all associated costs. Material changes in prices impact the current revenue stream, estimates of future reserves, borrowing base calculations of bank loans and the value of properties in purchase and sale transactions. Material changes in prices, such as those experienced to date in 2020, can impact the value of oil and natural gas companies and their ability to raise capital, borrow money and retain personnel. We anticipate business costs will vary in accordance with commodity prices for oil and natural gas, and the associated increase or decrease in demand for services related to production and exploration.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any material off-balance sheet arrangements.

Commitments and Contractual Obligations

On August 2, 2018, the Company executed a five-year agreement with SCM Crude, LLC, an affiliate of Salt Creek, to secure firm takeaway pipeline capacity and pricing on a long-haul pipeline to the Gulf Coast region commencing July 1, 2019. On March 11, 2019, the agreement was replaced with a five-year agreement between the Company and ARM, a related company to Salt Creek. The new agreement accelerated the start date to March 2019 and guarantees firm takeaway capacity on a long-haul pipeline to Corpus Christi, Texas, once completed, at a specified price. The Company received pricing differentials on the crude oil sales contract subject to minimum quantities of crude oil to be delivered, however, due to the May 8, 2020 termination of this agreement with ARM, these minimum quantity commitments no longer existed at ~~June~~September 30, 2020. A table of the minimum quantities of crude oil under the canceled contract is below:

Date	Quantity (Barrels per Day)
March 2019 - June 2019		5,000
July 2019 - December 2019		4,000
January 2020 - June 2020		5,000
July 2020 - June 2021		6,000
July 2021 - December 2024 ⁽¹⁾		7,500

⁽¹⁾	Extending to the later of December 2024 or 5 years from the EPIC Crude Oil pipeline in-service date (February 2025).

Further, ARM has agreed to purchase crude from the Company based upon Magellan East Houston pricing with a fixed “differential basis”. As of December 31, 2019, we determined the agreement no longer met the criteria for the “normal purchase normal sales” exception under ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging”, as the Company was not meeting the minimum quantities deliverable under the contract and the net settlement criteria being met. See Note 9 - Derivatives to our condensed consolidated financial statements for information regarding the recognition of the net settlement mechanism as an embedded derivative over the remainder of the contract. On May 8, 2020, the Company terminated this agreement with ARM.

Item 3.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are exposed to various market risks, including risks relating to changes in commodity prices, interest rate risk, customer credit risk and currency exchange rate risk, as discussed below.

Commodity Price Risk

Our major market risk exposure is in the pricing applicable to our oil and natural gas production. Market risk refers to the risk of loss from adverse changes in oil and natural gas prices. Realized pricing is primarily driven by the prevailing domestic price for crude oil and spot prices applicable to the region in which we produce natural gas. Historically, prices received for oil and natural gas production have been volatile and unpredictable. We expect pricing volatility to continue. The prices that we receive depend on external factors beyond our control.

During the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020, the oil prices we received ranged from a low of $6.08 per barrel to a high of $5254.4859 per barrel. The NGL prices we received in the period ranged from a low of $0.2019 per gallon to a high of $0.46 per gallon. Natural gas prices during the period ranged from a low of $0.13 per MCF to a high of $02.9805 per MCF.

A significant decline in the prices of oil or natural gas could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. In order to reduce commodity price uncertainty and increase cash flow predictability relating to the marketing of our crude oil and natural gas, we may enter into crude oil and natural gas price hedging arrangements with respect to a portion of our expected production.

The price of oil and natural gas has fallen significantly since the beginning of 2020, due in part to OPEC negotiations as well as concerns about the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on the worldwide economy and global demand for oil and gas. The resulting precipitous decline in oil and gas pricing experienced during March 2020 and through the date of this Quarterly Report, if prolonged, or a further deterioration of the market price for oil and natural gas will further negatively impact our ability to continue to operate as a going concern.

WeUntil ~~have~~June 2020, we had an active hedging program to mitigate risk regarding our cash flow and to protect returns from our development activity in the event of decreases in the prices received for our production; however, hedging arrangements may expose us to risk of significant financial loss in some circumstances and may limit the benefit we would receive from increases in the prices for oil, natural gas and NGLs.

The derivative contracts may include fixed-for-floating price swaps (whereby, on the settlement date, the Company will receive or pay an amount based on the difference between a pre-determined fixed price and a variable market price for a notional quantity of production), put options (whereby the Company pays a cash premium in order to establish a fixed floor price for a notional quantity of production and, on the settlement date, receives the excess, if any, of the fixed price floor over a variable market price), and costless collars (whereby, on the settlement date, the Company receives the excess, if any, of a variable market price over a fixed floor price up to a fixed ceiling price for a notional quantity of production). We do not enter into derivatives for trading or other speculative purposes. We believe that our use of derivatives and related hedging activities reduces our exposure to commodity price rate risk and does not expose us to material credit risk or any other material market risk.

The Forbearance Agreement entered into on June 5, 2020 permitted the lenders under the Revolving Credit Agreement in their capacity as counterparties to the Company’s commodity swap agreements to unwind and liquidate such swap arrangements during the Forbearance Period and to apply any net proceeds to pay down the outstanding obligations under the Revolving Credit Agreement. The swap positions of such lenders were liquidated on June 9, 2020, for net proceeds of approximately $9.3 million, which was applied to reduce the outstanding obligations of the Company under the Revolving Credit Agreement. On June 17, 2020, certain of its bank lenders permitted the Company to borrow $1.5 million under our Revolving Credit Agreement. As of the filing of the Chapter 11 Cases, the total outstanding principal on our Revolving Credit Agreement was $89.9 million, including $25.7 million of such principal held by an affiliate of Värde which was subordinated to the indebtedness of the other bank lenders under the Revolving Credit Agreement.

Our remaining derivative contracts were with counterparties that were not our RBL Lenders are governed by master agreements which generally specify that a default under any of our indebtedness as well as any bankruptcy filing is an event of default which may result in early termination of the derivative contracts. As a result of our debt defaults and our bankruptcy petition, we are currently in default under these remaining derivative contracts. We anticipate that our remaining outstanding derivative contracts may be terminated in conjunction with our bankruptcy proceedings. We have received notices from the four remaining counterparties that they intend to terminate their master agreements with us. Furthermore, since we are in default on our indebtedness and have a bankruptcy filing, we will no longer be able to represent that we comply with the credit default or bankruptcy covenants under our derivative master agreements and thus may not be able to enter into new hedging transactions.

Our revenues, profitability and future growth depend substantially on prevailing prices for oil and natural gas. Prices also affect the amount of cash flow available for capital expenditures and our ability to borrow and raise additional capital. The amount we can borrow is subject to periodic redetermination based in part on changing expectations of future prices. Lower prices may also reduce the amount of oil and natural gas that we can economically produce. We currently sell all of our oil and natural gas production under price sensitive or market price contracts.

Interest Rate Risk

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2020, after giving effect to the roll-up of $15 million into the DIP Facility, we had $8874.49 million outstanding under our Revolving Credit Agreement with an applicable margin that varies from 2.75% to 3.25%. In addition, holders of our shares of Preferred Stock are entitled to receive cumulative preferential dividends, payable and compounded quarterly in arrears at an average annual rate of 9.07% of the Stated Value until maturity.

Currently, we do not have any interest rate derivative contracts in place. If we incur significant debt with a risk of fluctuating interest rates in the future, we may enter into interest rate derivative contracts on a portion of our then outstanding debt to mitigate the risk of fluctuating interest rates.

Customer Credit Risk

Our principal exposure to credit risk is through receivables from the sale of our oil and natural gas production of approximately $45.83 million at ~~June~~September 30, 2020, and through actual and accrued receivables from our joint interest partners of approximately $3.50 million at ~~June~~September 30, 2020. We are subject to credit risk due to the concentration of our oil and natural gas receivables with our most significant customers. We do not require our customers to post collateral, and the inability of our significant customers to meet their obligations to us or their insolvency or liquidation may adversely affect our financial results. For the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020, sales to ~~two~~three customers, ARM Energy Management, LLC, Midcon Gathering, and Lucid Energy Delaware, LLC, accounted for approximately, 9363%, 30%, and 46% of our revenue, respectively.

Currency Exchange Rate Risk

We do not have any foreign sales and we accept payment for our commodity sales only in U.S. dollars. We are, therefore, not exposed to foreign currency exchange rate risk on these sales.

Item 4.Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer who also serves as our Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act. Internal control over financial reporting is an integral component of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure and is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC. Based upon their evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of ~~June~~September 30, 2020.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020, that materially affected or is reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

We may from time to time be involved in various legal actions arising in the normal course of business. However, we do not believe there is any currently pending litigation that could have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition, other than the following.

In re Lilis Energy, Inc., et al., Case No. 20-33274 in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division. On the Petition Date, the Debtors filed voluntary petitions for relief under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code in the Bankruptcy Court. The Debtors currently operate their business as “debtors-in-possession” under the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court, in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code. Subject to certain exceptions, under the Bankruptcy Code, the filing of the bankruptcy petitions automatically enjoined, or stayed, the continuation of most judicial or administrative proceedings or the filing of other actions against the Debtors or their property to recover, collect or secure a claim arising prior to the Petition Date. Creditors are stayed from taking any actions against the Debtors as a result of debt defaults, subject to certain limited exceptions permitted by the Bankruptcy Code. On July 14, 2020, the United States Trustee appointed an official committee of unsecured creditors for the Chapter 11 Cases.

ARM Energy Management, LLC, SCM Crude, LLC and Salt Creek Midstream, LLC v. Lilis Energy, Inc., Cause No. 2020-28573 in the 333rd Judicial District Court, Harris County, Texas. On May 8, 2020, ARM, SCM Crude, LLC and Salt Creek (together with SCM Crude, LLC, “SCM”) filed suit against the Company, asserting a claim by SCM for alleged breach of the Gathering Agreement, a claim by ARM for alleged breach of that certain Firm Sales Contract dated March 11, 2019, by and between the Company and ARM (the “Firm Sales Contract”), and claims for a declaratory judgment that the “Commencement Date” under the Gathering Agreement occurred no later than January 1, 2020, and that Lilis incurred certain obligations related to dedication of certain wells to payment of gathering fees under the Gathering Agreement as of that date, and for specific performance of the Gathering Agreement. On May 6, 2020, the Company terminated the Gathering Agreement in its entirety on the basis that, among other things, SCM failed to timely build and properly equip a crude pipeline gathering system by the date specified in the Gathering Agreement. In connection with the termination of the Gathering Agreement, the Company declared force majeure on May 6, 2020 and suspended deliveries of crude oil under that certain Firm Sales Contract dated March 11, 2019, by and between the Company and ARM (the “Firm Sales Contract”). The Company also demanded adequate assurances from ARM under the Firm Sales Contract due to ARM’s alleged pattern of taking unpermitted deductions and failing to pay for certain amounts of crude oil. When ARM failed to post adequate assurances, the Company subsequently terminated the Firm Sales Contract on May 8, 2020. SCM and ARM argued that, among other things, the Company wrongfully terminated (i) the Gathering Agreement based on the Company’s claim that SCM failed to timely build and properly equip a crude pipeline gathering system and (ii) the Firm Sales Agreement based on the Company’s claim that ARM failed to provide adequate assurance of performance.

On May 26, 2020, the court held a hearing on SCM’s request for temporary injunctive relief. By order dated May 28, 2020, the court denied SCM’s request for temporary injunctive relief, finding that SCM had failed to demonstrate the lack of an adequate remedy at law. On June 9, 2020, SCM filed a motion to reconsider their application for a temporary injunction. On June 10, 2020, the Company filed its response to SCM’s motion to reconsider, arguing that reconsideration is not warranted, and that SCM continues to fail to demonstrate that it lacks an adequate remedy at law. The court set a hearing on SCM’s motion to reconsider for June 22, 2020, which was subsequently rescheduled for June 29, 2020; however, prior to such hearing, the Company removed the case to the bankruptcy court in connection with the filing of the Chapter 11 Cases. The Company has filed two motions for summary judgment, one seeking a declaration that the Gathering Agreement was properly terminated by Lilis and one seeking summary judgment that the Firm Sales Contract was properly terminated by Lilis. AARM ~~hearing~~and SCM filed responses to ~~consider~~those motions for summary judgment on August 4, 2020. A hearing on the ~~two~~Debtors’ motions isfor ~~scheduled~~summary ~~for~~judgment ~~August~~occurred 18on October 5, 2020. The Bankruptcy Court denied the Company's motion for summary judgment that the Firm Sales Contract was properly terminated by Lilis; however, the

Company plans to continue defending its termination of the Firm Sales Contract. The Bankruptcy Court has not yet issued a decision on the motion for summary judgment that the Gathering Agreement was properly terminated by Lilis.

• the ability of third parties to seek and obtain court approval to terminate or shorten the exclusivity period for us to propose and confirm a Chapter 11 plan, to appoint a Chapter 11 trustee, or to convert the Chapter 11 Cases to proceedings under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code; and the actions and decisions of our creditors and other third parties who have interests in our Chapter 11 Cases that may be inconsistent with ~~the RSA or~~ our plans.

These risks and uncertainties could affect our business and operations in various ways. For example, negative events associated with our Chapter 11 Cases could adversely affect our relationships with our suppliers, service providers, customers, employees, and other third parties, which in turn could adversely affect our operations and financial condition. Also, we need the prior approval of the Bankruptcy Court for transactions outside the ordinary course of business, which may limit our ability to respond timely to certain events or take advantage of certain opportunities. Because of the risks and uncertainties associated with our Chapter 11 Cases, we cannot accurately predict or quantify the ultimate impact that events that occur during our Chapter 11 Cases will have on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We have a significant amount of indebtedness and preferred stock that is senior to our existing common stock in our capital structure. As a result, we believe that it is highly likely that the shares of our existing common stock will be canceled in our Chapter 11 Cases and investors will receive limited to no recovery on account of such shares under any plan approved by the Bankruptcy Court, irrespective of whether such plan contemplates terms consistent with or similar to those agreed upon in the ~~RSA~~Plan.

Operating under Bankruptcy Court protection for a long period of time may harm our business.

Our future results are dependent upon the successful confirmation and implementation of a ~~plan~~Chapter of11 ~~reorganization~~plan. A long period of operations under Bankruptcy Court protection could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and liquidity. So long as the proceedings related to the Chapter 11 Cases continue, our senior management will be required to spend a significant amount of time and effort dealing with the ~~reorganization~~Chapter 11 Cases instead of focusing exclusively on our business operations. A prolonged period of operating under Bankruptcy Court protection also may make it more difficult to retain management and other key personnel necessary to the success and growth of our business. In addition, the longer the proceedings related to the Chapter 11 Cases continue, the more likely it is that our customers and suppliers will lose confidence in our ability to reorganize our businesses successfully and will seek to establish alternative commercial relationships.

Furthermore, so long as the proceedings related to the Chapter 11 Cases continue, we will continue to be required to incur substantial costs for professional fees and other expenses associated with the administration of the Chapter 11 proceedings. The Chapter 11 proceedings may also require us to seek additional debtor-in-possession financing to fund operations. If we are unable to obtain such financing on favorable terms or at all, our chances of successfully reorganizing our business may be seriously jeopardized, the likelihood that we instead will be required to liquidate our assets may be enhanced, and, as a result, any securities in the Debtor could become further devalued or become worthless.

Furthermore, we cannot predict the ultimate amount of all settlement terms for the liabilities that will be subject to a plan of reorganization. Even once a plan of reorganization is approved and implemented, our operating results may be adversely affected by the possible reluctance of prospective lenders and other counterparties to do business with a company that recently emerged from Chapter 11 proceedings.

We may not be able to obtain confirmation of a Chapter 11 Plan ~~of Reorganization~~.

If a proposed Chapter 11 ~~plan~~Plan ~~of reorganization~~ is ~~not~~consummated, ~~confirmed by~~ the ~~Bankruptcy~~Company ~~Court,~~will itlikely ~~is unclear whether we would~~ be ~~able~~liquidated ~~to reorganize our business~~ and ~~what,~~will ifnot ~~anything,~~continue ~~holders~~as ofa ~~claims~~going ~~against us would ultimately receive with respect to their claims~~concern.

~~Even~~If ifthe Plan is consummated as currently proposed, the Company and its subsidiaries will likely be liquidated and cease to operate as an entity or going concern. We will continue to face a number of risks, including certain risks that are beyond our control, such as further deterioration or other changes in economic conditions, changes in our industry, potential revaluing of our assets due to Chapter 11 ~~Plan~~proceeding changes in consumer demand for, and acceptance of, ~~Reorganization~~our isoil ~~consummated~~and gas and increasing expenses. Some of these concerns and effects typically become more acute when a case under the Bankruptcy Code continues for a protracted period without indication of how or when the case may be completed. As a result of this liquidation, westakeholders in the Company and its subsidiaries, including creditors and equity interests security holders, will ~~continue~~be limited to ~~face~~recovery ~~risks~~of the value of the assets received in the liquidation and such other assets as are provided in the Plan. At the values currently expected to be realized under for assets of the Company and its subsidiaries in the Sales Process, the expected recovery by unsecured creditors and equity security holders of the Company is minimal.

Even if a Chapter 11 plan of reorganization is consummated, we will continue to face a number of risks, including certain risks that are beyond our control, such as further deterioration or other changes in economic conditions, changes in our industry, potential revaluing of our assets due to Chapter 11 proceeding changes in consumer demand for, and acceptance of, our oil and gas and increasing expenses. Some of these concerns and effects typically become more acute when a case under the Bankruptcy Code continues for a protracted period without indication of how or when the case may be completed. As a result of these risks and others, there is no guaranty that a confirmed Chapter 11 plan of reorganization will achieve our stated goals.

In addition, at the outset of the Chapter 11 proceedings, the Bankruptcy Code gives the Debtor the exclusive right to propose the Plan and prohibits creditors, equity security holders and others from proposing a plan. We have currently retained the exclusive right to propose the Plan. If the Bankruptcy Court terminates that right, however, or the exclusivity period expires, there could be a material adverse effect on our ability to achieve confirmation of the Plan in order to achieve our stated goals.

Furthermore, even if our debts are reduced or discharged through the Plan, we may need to raise additional funds through public or private debt or equity financing or other various means to fund our business after the completion of the proceedings related to the Chapter 11 Cases. Adequate funds may not be available when needed or may not be available on favorable terms.

We have substantial liquidity needs and may be required to seek additional financing. If we are unable to obtain financing on satisfactory terms or maintain adequate liquidity, our ability to replace our proved reserves or to maintain current production levels and generate revenue will be limited.

Our principal sources of liquidity historically have been cash flow from operations, sales of oil and natural gas properties, borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility, and issuances of debt securities. Our capital program will require additional financing above the level of cash generated by our operations to fund growth. If our cash flow from operations remains depressed or decreases as a result of lower commodity prices or otherwise, our ability to expend the capital necessary to replace our proved reserves, maintain our leasehold acreage or maintain current production may be limited, resulting in decreased production and proved reserves over time. ~~In addition, drilling activity may be directed by our partners in certain areas and we may have to forfeit acreage if we do not have sufficient capital resources to fund our portion of expenses.~~

We face uncertainty regarding the adequacy of our liquidity and capital resources and have extremely limited access to additional financing. The Interim DIP Order entered by the Bankruptcy Court on June 29, 2020 approved the Initial DIP Facility on an interim basis, thereby allowing us to borrow up to $5.0 million under the Initial DIP Facility. Our ability to borrow the additional $10.0 million new money loans under the Initial DIP Facility is contingent on the satisfaction of the conditions specified in the Initial DIP Credit Agreement, including receipt of a final order by the Bankruptcy Court approving the Initial DIP Facility and the Initial DIP Credit Agreement. In addition to the cash requirement necessary to fund ongoing operations, we have incurred significant professional fees and other costs in connection with preparation for the Chapter 11 Cases and expect that we will continue to incur significant professional fees, costs and other expenses throughout our Chapter 11 Cases. While we currently estimate that the amount of financing available under the Initial DIP Facility (assuming approval by the Bankruptcy Court and satisfaction of the other conditions specified in the Initial DIP Credit Agreement) is consistent with our liquidity needs, we cannot assure you that cash on hand, cash flow from operations and the financing contemplated by the RSA will be sufficient.55

In addition, drilling activity may be directed by our partners in certain areas and we may have to forfeit acreage if we do not have sufficient capital resources to fund our portion of expenses.

We face uncertainty regarding the adequacy of our liquidity and capital resources and have extremely limited access to additional financing. The Interim DIP Order entered by the Bankruptcy Court on June 29, 2020 approved the DIP Facility on an interim basis, thereby allowing us to borrow up to $5.0 million under the DIP Facility, and the Bankruptcy Court’s final order allowed us to borrow an additional $10.0 million new money loans under the DIP Facility. In addition to the cash requirement necessary to fund ongoing operations, we have incurred significant professional fees and other costs in connection with preparation for the Chapter 11 Cases and expect that we will continue to incur significant professional fees, costs and other expenses throughout our Chapter 11 Cases. While we currently estimate that the amount of financing available under the DIP Facility is consistent with our liquidity needs, we cannot assure you that such financing in addition to cash on hand and cash flow from operations will be sufficient to fund our ongoing liquidity needs.

Our liquidity, including our ability to meet our ongoing operational obligations, is dependent upon, among other things; (i) our ability to comply with the terms and conditions of the Interim DIP Order, (ii) our ability to maintain adequate cash on hand, (iii) our ability to generate cash flow from operations, (iv) our ability to develop, confirm and consummate a Chapter 11 plan or other alternative restructuring transaction, and (v) the cost, duration and outcome of the Chapter 11 Cases. Our ability to maintain adequate liquidity depends in part upon industry conditions and general economic, financial, competitive, regulatory and other factors beyond our control. In the event that cash on hand and cash flow from operation is not sufficient to meet our liquidity needs, we may be required to seek additional financing. We can provide no assurance that additional financing would be available or, if available, offered to us on acceptable terms. Our access to additional financing is, and for the foreseeable future will likely continue to be, extremely limited if it is available at all. Our long-term liquidity requirements and the adequacy of our capital resources are difficult to predict at this time.

In certain instances, a Chapter 11 case may be converted to a case under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code.

If the Bankruptcy Court finds that it would be in the best interest of creditors or the Company or both, the Bankruptcy Court may convert our Chapter 11 Cases to cases under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code. In such event, a Chapter 7 trustee would be appointed or elected to liquidate the Debtors’ assets for distribution in accordance with the priorities established by the Bankruptcy Code. We believe that liquidation under Chapter 7 would result in significantly smaller distributions being made to our creditors than those provided for in a Chapter 11 plan because of (i) the likelihood that the assets would have to be sold or otherwise disposed of in a disorderly fashion over a short period of time rather than reorganizing or selling in a controlled manner the Company’s businesses as a going concern, (ii) additional administrative expenses involved in the appointment of a Chapter 7 trustee, and (iii) additional expenses and claims, some of which would be entitled to priority, that would be generated during the liquidation and from the rejection of leases and other executory contracts in connection with cessation of operations.

We may be subject to claims that will not be discharged in the Chapter 11 Cases, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results or operations.

The Bankruptcy Code provides that the confirmation of a ~~plan~~Chapter of11 ~~reorganization~~plan discharges a debtor from substantially all debts arising prior to confirmation. With few exceptions, all claims that arose prior to June 28, 2020 or before confirmation of the ~~plan~~Chapter of11 ~~reorganization~~ plan (i) would be subject to compromise and/or treatment under the ~~plan~~Chapter of11 ~~reorganization~~plan and/or (ii) would be discharged in accordance with the terms of the ~~plan~~Chapter of11 ~~reorganization. Any claims not ultimately discharged through a~~ plan ~~of reorganization could be asserted against the reorganized entities and may have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations on a post-reorganization basis~~.

Our financial results may be volatile and may not reflect historical trends.

During the Chapter 11 proceedings, we expect our financial results to continue to be volatile as asset impairments, asset dispositions, restructuring activities and expenses, contract terminations and rejections, and claims assessments significantly impact our consolidated financial statements. As a result, our historical financial performance is likely not indicative of our financial performance after the date of the bankruptcy filing.

In addition, if we emerge from Chapter 11, the amounts reported in subsequent consolidated financial statements may materially change relative to historical consolidated financial statements, including as a result of revisions to our operating plans pursuant to a plan of reorganization. We also may be required to adopt fresh start accounting, in which case our assets and liabilities will be recorded at fair value as of the fresh start reporting date, which may differ materially from the recorded values of assets and liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets. Our financial results after the application of fresh start accounting also may be different from historical trends.

Transfers of our equity, or issuances of equity in connection with our Chapter 11 Cases, may impair our ability to utilize our federal income tax net operating loss carryforwards in future years.

Under federal income tax law, a corporation is generally permitted to deduct from taxable income net operating losses carried forward from prior years. As of December 31, 2019, the Company had net operating loss carry-forwards for federal income tax purposes of approximately $142.2 million available to offset future taxable income. To the extent not utilized, federal net operating loss carry-forwards incurred prior to January 1, 2018 of $69.9 million will expire beginning in 2028 through 2037. Federal net operating loss carryforwards incurred after December 31, 2017 of $77.1 million have no expiration and can only be used to offset 80% of taxable income when utilized. A portion of the net operating loss of $142.2 million is subject to Section 382 limitations of utilization due to ownership changes of more than 50% which occurred in the prior tax years.

Our ability to utilize our net operating loss carryforwards to offset future taxable income and to reduce federal income tax liability is subject to certain requirements and restrictions. If we experience a further “ownership change,” as defined in section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, then our ability to use our net operating loss carryforwards may be substantially limited, which could have a negative impact on our financial position and results of operations. Generally, there is an “ownership change” if one or more stockholders owning 5% or more of a corporation’s common stock have aggregate increases in their ownership of such stock of more than 50 percentage points over the prior three-year period. Following the implementation plan of reorganization, it is possible that an “ownership change” may be deemed to occur. Under section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, absent an applicable exception, if a corporation undergoes an “ownership change,” the amount of its net operating losses that may be utilized to offset future taxable income generally is subject to an annual limitation.56

On the Petition Date, the Debtors filed a motion with the Bankruptcy Court seeking entry of an interim and final order establishing certain notification procedures and trading restrictions on substantial stockholders. On June 29, 2020, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order granting the motion on an interim basis and on August 14, 2020, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order granting the motion on a final basis. Pursuant to the order, the notification procedures and trading restrictions would reduce the likelihood of an ownership change occurring prior to the effective date of a Chapter 11 plan.

Our common stock is quoted on the OTC Pink, and thus may have a limited market and lack of liquidity.

Our common stock is quoted on the OTC Pink, which may have an unfavorable impact on our stock price and liquidity. The OTC Pink Marketplace is a significantly more limited market than the NYSE American. The quotation of our shares on such marketplace may result in a less liquid market available for existing and potential stockholders to trade shares of our common stock, could depress the trading price of our common stock, and could have a long-term adverse impact on our ability to raise capital in the future. There can be no assurance that there will be an active market for our shares of common stock, either now or in the future, or that stockholders will be able to liquidate their investment. Additionally, trading in our ~~securities~~common stock is highly speculative, especially in light of the limited prospects of recovery for such holders of common stock pursuant to a Chapter 11 plan, and the market price of our common stock has been and may continue to be volatile. Any such volatility may affect the ability to sell our common stock at an advantageous price or at all.

The Company has been adversely affected by the recent coronavirus outbreak and is likely to continue to be adversely affected for a significant period of time.

The outbreak of the COVID-19 coronavirus, which has been declared by the World Health Organization to be a pandemic, has spread across the globe and is causing severe disruptions in the worldwide economy, including the global demand for oil and natural gas, which has disrupted our business and operations. A pandemic, including the COVID-19 coronavirus or other public health epidemic, poses the risk that we or our employees, contractors, suppliers, customers and other partners may be prevented from conducting business activities for an indefinite period of time, including due to spread of the disease within these groups or due to restrictions that may be requested or mandated by governmental authorities, including quarantines of certain geographic areas, restrictions on travel and other restrictions that prohibit employees from going to work. Moreover, since the beginning of January 2020, the COVID-19 outbreak has caused significant disruption in the financial markets both globally and in the United States. The continued spread of COVID-19 and the related mitigation measures has resulted in a significant decrease in business and could cause our oil and natural gas purchasers to be unable to meet existing payment or other obligations to us. The continued spread of COVID-19 and the related mitigation measures could continue to negatively impact the availability of our key personnel necessary to conduct our business. Such a spread could also negatively impact the business and operations of third party service providers who perform critical services for our business. Because the COVID-19 pandemic is continually evolving, the ultimate impact of COVID-19 is highly uncertain. If COVID-19 continues to spread or the response to contain COVID-19 is unsuccessful, we could continue to experience a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

From time to time, we are subject to various claims, litigation and other proceedings that could ultimately be resolved against us, requiring material future cash payments or charges, which could impair our financial condition or results of operations.

We are currently, and may in the future become, subject to various claims, either in litigation or binding arbitration, which, if not resolved within amounts we have accrued, could have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Although we maintain insurance to cover litigation related claims, there can be no assurance that our insurance will be sufficient or adequate to cover all losses or liabilities or that insurance will continue to be available to us on acceptable terms, or at all. Similarly, any claims, even if fully indemnified or insured, could negatively impact our reputation among our customers and the public, and make it more difficult for us to compete effectively or obtain adequate insurance in the future.

Notification Procedures and Transfer Restrictions with Respect to the Common and Preferred Stock

On the Petition Date, the Debtors filed a motion (“NOL Motion”) seeking entry of an interim and final order establishing certain procedures and restrictions (“Procedures”) with respect to the direct or indirect purchase, disposition or other transfer of the Company’s (i) common stock (“Common Stock”), (ii) Series C-1 9.75% Participating Preferred Stock (“Series C-1 Preferred Stock”), (iii) Series C-2 9.75% Participating Preferred Stock (“Series C-2 Preferred Stock”), (iv) Series D 8.25% Participating Preferred Stock (“Series D Preferred Stock”), (v) Series E 8.25% Convertible Participating Preferred Stock (“Series E Preferred Stock”), and (vi) Series F 9.00% Participating Preferred Stock (“Series F Preferred Stock”), and seeking related relief, in order to preserve and protect the potential value of the Debtors’ existing and future net operating losses (“NOLs”) and certain other tax attributes of the Debtors (together with the NOLs, “Tax Attributes”). IfOn ~~approved~~June 29, 2020, the ~~Procedures~~Bankruptcy ~~would~~Court entered an order granting the NOL Motion on an interim basis and on August 14, 2020, the Bankruptcy entered an order granting the NOL Motion on a final basis. Pursuant to the order, any prohibited transfer of Common Stock, Series C-1 Preferred Stock, Series C-2 Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock, Series E Preferred Stock or Series F Preferred Stock is null and void and will cause reversal of the noncompliant transaction and such other (or additional) measures as the Bankruptcy Court may deem appropriate. The Procedures, among other things, require notices of the holdings of, and proposed transactions by, any person or entity that is or, as a result of the transaction, would become, a Substantial Holder of Common Stock, Series C-1 Preferred Stock, Series C-2 Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock, Series E Preferred Stock, or Series F Preferred Stock.
